Israel's Restoration: A Textual-Comparative Exploration of Ezekiel 36-39
ISBN: 9789004169623 / Angielski / Twarda / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Commentators traditionally use a textual-critical methodology in examining Hebrew and Greek manuscripts to establish an 'original' reading, frequently attributing other variants to scribal error. This book proposes a complementary-textual comparative methodology that treats each Hebrew and/or Greek manuscript with equal value, listening to each voice as a possible interpretive trajectory. This methodology is applied to the restoration of Israel in Ezekiel 36-39, initially on a micro level examining each verse for intra-linguistic and trans-linguistic variants, frequently finding exegetical...

The thirteenth-century Jewish mystical classic Sefer ha-Zohar (The Book of Splendor), commonly known as the Zohar, took shape against a backdrop of rising anti-Judaism in Spain.

Major Poems of the Hebrew Bible: At the Interface of Hermeneutics and Structural Analysis, Volume I: Ex. 15, Deut. 32, and Job 3
ISBN: 9789023233671 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents a comprehensive discussion of three famous poems which are studied as works of art. A full description of their prosodic regularity, as well as the variations on it, is given, and goes hand in hand with a detailed structural analysis of the lower and higher textual units. Great care is taken to find the correct delimitation of cola (half-verses), verses, strophes and stanzas, and, in the case of Deut.32, of its four big sections, after which all things fall into place. The articulation of the higher units underpins the discursive or argumentative structure of Deut.32 and...

ISBN: 9789023234319 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This is achieved by first evaluating how these words were treated by traditional pre-generative grammars of Hebrew. This section of the study serves primarily to indicate the shortcomings in these explanations, and to indicate thereby the need for a generative study of these words. Thereafter the treatment of these words in terms of traditional generative phonology is discussed. In this section the explanations offered by two noted scholars in the field, Malone and Garr, are...

Inventing New Beginnings: On the Idea of Renaissance in Modern Judaism
ISBN: 9780804760416 / Angielski / Twarda / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Inventing New Beginnings is the first book-length study to examine the conceptual underpinnings of the -Jewish Renaissance, - or -return- to Judaism, that captured much of German-speaking Jewry between 1890 and 1938. The book addresses two very fundamental, yet hitherto strangely understated, questions: What did the term -renaissance- actually mean to the intellectuals and ideologues of the -Jewish Renaissance, - and how did this understanding relate to wider currents in European intellectual and cultural history of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? It also addresses the...

Interpreting Judaism in a Postmodern Age
ISBN: 9780814746752 / Angielski / Miękka / 406 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Postmodernity marks a time of creative conflict when the voices of the other, previously rendered silent by the majority, are prominently heard. What effect has postmodernism had on Judaism? The neat narratives and metanarratives of the Jewish past are being questioned and deconstructed, allowing for different versions of Jewish history to emerge. For example, a postmodern exploration of the place of women in Talmudic culture can upset portraits of women as powerless and rabbis as closed off to female experience thereby helping to secure a place for women today. Similarly, an analysis... Postmodernity marks a time of creative conflict when the voices of the other, previously rendered silent by the majority, are prominently heard. Wh... |
