Chapters on Jewish Literature
ISBN: 9781544607900 / Angielski / Miękka / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. These twenty-five short chapters on Jewish Literature open with the fall of Jerusalem in the year 70 of the current era, and end with the death of Moses Mendelssohn in 1786. Thus the period covered extends over more than seventeen centuries. Yet, long as this period is, it is too brief.

In Art and War, they engage in a dialogue that covers their approach to writing the fantastic, as they question how to write...

The Construct of Identity in Hellenistic Judaism: Essays on Early Jewish Literature and History
ISBN: 9783110609448 / Angielski / Miękka / 588 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book collects twenty two previously published essays and one new one by Erich S. Gruen who has written extensively on the literature and history of early Judaism and the experience of the Jews in the Greco-Roman world. His many articles on this subject have, however, appeared mostly in conference volumes and Festschriften, and have therefore not had wide circulation. By putting them together in a single work, this will bring the essays to the attention of a much broader scholarly readership and make them more readily available to students in the fields of ancient history and early...
