Ethnicity, Religion and Class in Israeli Society
ISBN: 9780521392297 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first major sociological analysis of the characteristics and interrelationships of ethnicity, religion, and socio-economic class in Israeli society.

Holy Men and Hunger Artists: Fasting and Asceticism in Rabbinic Culture
ISBN: 9780195137507 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The existence of ascetic elements within rabbinic Judaism has generally been either overlooked or actually denied. This is in part because asceticism is commonly identified with celibacy, whereas the rabbis emphasized sexuality as a positive good. In addition, argues Eliezer Diamond, it serves the theological agendas of both Jewish and Christian scholars to characterize Judaism as non- or anti-ascetic.
In fact, however, Diamond shows that rabbinic asceticism does indeed exist. This asceticism is mainly secondary, rather than primary, in that the rabbis place no value on self-denial in and...

ISBN: 9781934843512 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The fundamental book of Eliezer Schweid is a modern interpretation of the Bible as narrative and law which can reopen the dialogue of contemporary Jews with the Bible, from which a dynamic Jewish culture can continue to draw its inspiration.

Schweid helps us to appreciate the broader message of the narrative of creation and settlement of...

Personal Recollections of Birmingham and Birmingham Men
ISBN: 9781548305239 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It is a fine autumnal morning in the year 1837. I am sitting on the box seat of a stage coach, in the yard of the Bull-and-Mouth, St. Martin's-le-Grand, in the City of London. The splendid gray horses seem anxious to be off, but their heads are held by careful grooms. The metal fittings of the harness glitter in the early sunlight. Jew pedlar-boys offer me razors and penknives at prices unheard of in the shops. Porters bring carpet-bags and strange-looking packages of all sizes, and, to my great inconvenience, keep lifting up the foot-board, to deposit them in the "front boot." A...
