Through a focus on language in everyday life - including narrative, humor, and Arabic and Hebrew \"heritage words\" - the book explores how young adults negotiate oft-stigmatized, diasporic identities amid national shifts toward neoliberalism and the transnational expansion of Jewish ultra-Orthodoxy. Accessible yet richly theorized, the book introduces linguistic anthropological concepts and guides readers through their application to audiovisual data. This innovative approach promotes empathetic understanding of a lesser-known Jewish Latin American context and opens new lines of inquiry into the phenomenon of diaspora in a rapidly changing world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Evelyn María Dean-Olmsted\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004735771\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004735774\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/10\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.10w x 0.63d","brand":"Evelyn María Dean-Olmsted","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47931059568895,"sku":"9789004735774","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e2212aa-afec-4f3f-a46f-2c3c962d74e3.jpg?v=1766346168","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-of-age-as-syrian-evelyn-marza-dean-olmsted-9789004735774","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
