Rupture and Reconstruction: The Transformation of Modern Orthodoxy
ISBN: 9781906764388 / Angielski / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A cogent analysis of the development in orthodoxy that is often described as 'the swing to the Right', a rupture with pre-existing attitudes and patterns of behaviour that has had major consequences not only for Jewish society but also for the nature of Jewish spirituality. The consequent enshrinement of texts as the sole source of authenticity is explored in depth, along with its implications for religious performance, religious education, and the scope of religion in the political arena.

ISBN: 9781936235377 / Angielski / Twarda / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For centuries, fervently observant Jewish communities have produced thousands of works of Jewish law, thought, and spirituality.

What's changed? Why did these works appear, and what do they mean to the community that produces and consumes them? How has the Haredi world, as it seeks...

Britain's Chief Rabbis and the Religious Character of Anglo-Jewry 1880 1970
ISBN: 9780719095474 / Angielski / Miękka / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents a radical new interpretation of Britain's Chief Rabbis from Nathan Adler to Immanuel Jakobovits. It examines the theologies of the Chief Rabbis and seeks to reveal and explain their impact on the religious life of Anglo-Jewry. Elton overturns the argument that there was a significant shift to the right in the Chief Rabbinate during the period studied, and thereby sets out a new interpretation of the most important event in Anglo-Jewish religious history in the twentieth century, the Jacobs affair. This fascinating study develops a new and improved typology of the Jewish...

A Fire Burns in Kotsk: A Tale of Hasidism in the Kingdom of Poland
ISBN: 9780814338131 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Half a century after Hasidism blossomed in Eastern Europe, its members were making deep inroads into the institutional structure of Polish Jewish communities, but some devotees believed that the movement had drifted away from its revolutionary ideals. Menashe Unger's "A Fire Burns in Kotsk" dramatizes this moment of division among Polish Hasidim in a historical account that reads like a novel, though the book was never billed as such. Originally published in Buenos Aires in 1949 and translated for the first time from Yiddish by Jonathan Boyarin, this volume captures an important period in...
