http://philipwitriol.wordpress.com/
is a website
primarily about my father,
Joseph Witriol (1912 -2002),
and what he wrote.

In particular, Mumme Loohshen,
which he finished writing in 1974/5 but was unable to get published commercially.
The 200 page manuscript was subtitled ‘An Anatomy of Yiddish’ and the preface stated:

 "This is the first linguistically oriented book on the Yiddish language as a whole,
as opposed to monographs on specific aspects of Yiddish linguistics, to be written in English."

Some of his articles and book reviews are also uploaded and eventually I hope to transcribe his unpublished ‘Autobiography of a Failure’ and his personal journal which give insights into the domestic mundane as well as wider and tragic events he lived through.
