Visualizing Jews Through the Ages

Autor: Hannah Ewence , Helen Spurling

Número de Páginas: 352

This volume explores literary and material representations of Jews, Jewishness and Judaism from antiquity to the twenty-first century. Gathering leading scholars from within the field of Jewish Studies, it investigates how the debates surrounding literary and material images within Judaism and in Jewish life are part of an on-going strategy of image management - the urge to shape, direct, authorize and contain Jewish literary and material images and encounters with those images - a strategy both consciously and unconsciously undertaken within multifarious arenas of Jewish life from early modern German lands to late twentieth-century North London, late Antique Byzantium to the curation of contemporary Holocaust exhibitions.

For the Love of Israel and the Jewish People

Autor: Nathan Lopes Cardozo

Número de Páginas: 330

The unique, almost mysterious connection between the land of Israel and the Jewish people is at the heart of this remarkable collection of essays. Author Nathan Lopes Cardozo addresses questions such as How is it that contrary to all the laws of history, the Jewish people outlived so many powerful empires? How has such a tiny nation been able to make an unprecedented contribution to the well-being of all of humankind? Why did the Jewish people become a source of endless irritation to those who opposed their ethical teachings? and How can the State of Israel rediscover its Jewish identity as the source of its greatest blessing and hope? As he explores these issues, Lopes Cardozo explains how the Jews, even in their exile, were able to develop almost a portable homeland, taking the spirit and the concept of Israel with them wherever they went.

Cábala

Autor: Michael Chighel

Número de Páginas: 283

Durante décadas se ha debatido sobre el supuesto antisemitismo de Heidegger. En este libro, Michael Chighel ―como ninguna otra voz judía antes― dedica una intensa investigación a las declaraciones de Heidegger sobre el judaísmo, implicándose en la controversia sobre si este mantuvo o no una postura antisemita en los Cuadernos negros. Y llega a sorprendentes conclusiones. Chighel sostiene que, si se analiza el antihumanismo de Heidegger en directa confrontación con el humanismo hebreo, no solo el supuesto antisemitismo heideggeriano se diluye, sino que la «deconstrucción» que el filósofo alemán lleva a cabo de la historia de la filosofía occidental crea el espacio para repensar la tradición judía hoy en día. De este modo no solo se refuta o se neutraliza el presunto antisemitismo de Heidegger, sino que se aprovechan sus aportaciones filosóficas para revitalizar el tesoro de las enseñanzas del judaísmo en el mundo contemporáneo. Así, Cábala ―entendida en su triple significación como tradición, conspiración e hipótesis― es una revisión y una reformulación de las enseñanzas del judaísmo acerca del mundo y del hombre con miras a resaltar la...

Sabbataï Tsevi

Autor: Gerschom Scholem

Número de Páginas: 1030

La figure de Sabbataï Tsevi, le messie de Smyrne, hante l’histoire juive ainsi que l’histoire des mouvements apocalyptiques, d’autant qu’elle est restée très longtemps totalement inexplorée. Cette grande œuvre de Gershom Scholem entreprend une évocation détaillée du personnage, qui, dans toute l’Europe et en Orient, apparut comme le messie. C’est le fond même de la vague à la fois insurrectionnelle et religieuse qui est sondé à travers ses manifestations publiques comme à travers ses récits. Comment presque tout un peuple a cru à un moment à la fin du monde et s’y est activement préparé, comment le fol espoir de délivrance bouleversa les données historiques concrètes et l’ordre social ordinaire pour s’effondrer ensuite et jeter dans le désarroi le monde juif abusé, c’est la question à laquelle ce livre tente de répondre. Aborder l’histoire dans l’horizon de ce qu’imaginent les hommes et non sous l’angle étriqué de leurs conditions d’existence matérielle, tel est l’apport de Gershom Scholem à la démarche historique qui la renouvelle en profondeur.

Across the Great Divide

Autor: Abraham Coralnik

Número de Páginas: 526

"The publication of translated essays by Dr. Abraham Coralnik is an important step in enlarging our understanding of the cultural milieu of the early twentieth century in which Jewish immigrants from eastern Europe become Americanized."--Professor Eli Katz, University of California, Berkeley In 1937, when the essayist Abraham Coralnik died of a heart attack, Yiddish speakers in the United States lost one of their most articulate guides. As a columnist for the New York newspaper Der Tog (The Day) during the 1920's and 1930's, Coralnik moved effortlessly from discussions of Zionist politics to analyses of Marx and Plato to travelogues through the American heartland. As Europe exploded in anti-Semitism, and American Jewish life continued its spectacular transformation into the land of promise and confusion, Coralnik provided both insight and context for an immigrant community desperate to understand the changes taking place around it. Today, Coralnik's essays can be enjoyed not just for their perspective on two crucial decades of Jewish history, but for their timeless wisdom about culture, spirituality, philosophy and history. In Volume One of Across the Great Divide, Coralnik...

Kabbalistic Metaphors

Autor: Sanford L. Drob

Número de Páginas: 408

Kabbalistic Metaphors: Jewish Mystical Themes in Ancient and Modern Thought places the major symbols of the theosophical Kabbalah into a dialogue with several systems of ancient and modern thought, including Indian Philosophy, Platonism, Gnosticism, and the works of Hegel, Freud, and Jung. The author shows how the Kabbalah organizes a series of ancient ideas regarding God, cosmos, and humanity into a basic metaphor that itself reappears in various guises in much of modern philosophy and psychology. Recognition of the parallels between the Kabbalah and modern philosophy and psychology provides us with valuable insight into both the Kabbalah and modern thought, and helps pave the way for a "new Kabbalah," one that is spiritually and intellectually relevant to contemporary man.
