Rites of Passage: How Today's Jews Celebrate, Commemorate, and Commiserate
ISBN: 9781557535771 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Scholars tend to call them "rites of passage." Most people prefer to speak of them as life-cycle events or milestones. Jews like to speak of simchas, when there's something (a birth, bar or bat mitzvah, or a wedding) to celebrate. These are key moments for individuals and for the families and communities of which they are a part. This volume offers new insights into rituals as old as the Hebrew Bible and as new as the twenty-first century in contexts as familiar as the American Midwest and as exotic as Karaism. This collection examines and frequently affirms some of the rituals that have...

The authors of these essays raise a number of intriguing questions such as: What differing attitudes toward sports have Jews exhibited across periods and...

Who Is A Jew?: Reflections on History, Religion, and Culture
ISBN: 9781557536921 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Jewish identity is a perennial concern, as Jews seek to define the major features and status of those who "belong," while at the same time draw distinctions between individuals and groups on the "inside" and those on the "outside." From a variety of perspectives, scholarly as well as confessional, there is intense interest among non-Jewish and Jewish commentators alike in the basic question, "Who is a Jew?" This collection of articles draws diverse historical, cultural, and religious insights from scholars who represent a wide range of academic and theological disciplines. Some of the authors...

ISBN: 9781557537928 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dining on Leviathan. Discoursing with Socrates. Debating the nature of existence in the afterlife. These are among the topics authors address in this wide-ranging account of how Jews have conceptualized the world to come and structured their lives in this world accordingly. Some authorities portrayed the afterlife as an endless round of feasting and drinking of chazerie that would put the fanciest Las Vegas buffets to shame. There were visionaries who mapped out otherworldly climes populated by monstrous creatures. Others, decidedly more staid, saw the world to come as a location where...Dining on Leviathan.
