    Description: Phenomena such as the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, or the surge of political populism show that the current phase of accelerated globalization is over. New concepts are needed in order to respond to this exhaustion of the global project: the volume scrutinizes these responses in the aesthetic realm and under a "post-global" banner, while incorporating alternative, non-Western epistemologies and literatures of the post-colonial Global South.

    Description: At the end of 2017, the Research Network on Work, Gender and Daily Life was created, with the support of the Ibero-American Postgraduate University Association (AUIP). 44 researchers from 19 universities in 11 Latin American countries participated in its initial constitution. After almost 6 years, this network has doubled in size: close to a hundred participants, in 36 universities and 13 countries in the region. This journey has allowed consolidated and training researchers to be convened at the end of 2022 to publish recent findings on the dynamics of gender inequalities in the productive and reproductive sphere. The result is condensed in this volume, which also constitutes an invitation for future collaborations and dialogues between the world of scientific knowledge and the social reality of women and dissidents in Ibero-America.

    Description: El presente libro es una propuesta de sentido colectivo que desea poner en la mesa, desde una perspectiva histórica, varios debates respecto del pensamiento indígena en Nuestramérica. Proponemos que es urgente llevar a cabo una reflexión en torno al pensamiento indígena como pensamiento social en contextos globales, que imprime a su decir un cúmulo de ideas que vale la pena tener en cuenta.

    Description: Commentaries on the Guide of the Perplexed occupy a central but neglected place in the history of Jewish thought. In the first study on the subject, Igor De Souza examines this dynamic tradition in its most creative period. Rather than mere interpretation, De Souza reads commentaries as texts in their own right. At the same time, he illustrates how texts are reimagined through commentary, and repurposed for new generations of readers.

    Description: The title of this book is not innocent, it condenses the communicative intention of editorial work. It offers critical perspectives on some of the problems of the societies of the continent and, at the same time, sets out ways of solving it. In this sense, in the intention of the compilers lies an enormous wealth. Its pages are built with the result of the hard work of academics and researchers from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala and Uruguay, forming a book that allows us to approach some dimensions that are configured in the various territories with a complex look at through current problems. It is therefore a production that we can place within the developments framed in the so-called epistemologies of the South.

    Description: El presente libro es una recopilación de ensayos en torno a la historia internacional del socialismo. El volumen reúne 20 ensayos producidos por las y los integrantes del equipo de investigación sobre historia del socialismo del Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre Cultura y Sociedad (CIECS), un organismo dependiente del Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) y de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina. Los trabajos reunidos en este volumen tienen en común no sólo su preocupación por rescatar la historia del socialismo y del movimiento obrero, sino su enfoque explícitamente marxista. El marxismo es mucho más que un marco teórico académico: es una guía para la acción revolucionaria. El propósito de estos ensayos, por ende, no es sólo aplicar las herramientas teóricas del materialismo histórico al análisis de distintos aspectos de la historia del socialismo y de la teoría marxista, sino ante todo contribuir a la lucha por la emancipación de los trabajadores de la explotación capitalista.

    Description: El volumen que el lector posee en sus manos (o en su pantalla) constituye una selección de los estudios presentados en el congreso internacional “1820. La Ilusión de la Libertad. El liberalismo revolucionario en España y América en los años veinte”, realizado en Las Cabezas de San Juan y Sevilla en marzo de 2020, como forma de reflexionar (y celebrar, por supuesto) el bicentenario del Trienio Liberal español, atendiendo no sólo a sus implicancias en la Península Ibérica, sino especialmente a su impacto en América. La efeméride funcionó, entonces, como una excusa para analizar problemas relevantes del pasado y el presente. En este caso, los vínculos entre una sociedad estancada, y que ya nada más tenía para ofrecer, y una de las revoluciones más importantes que se desenvolvió a lo largo y ancho de Iberoamérica. Esto se hizo por medio de la presentación de un conjunto de investigaciones que atendieron a los aspectos económicos, políticos, sociales y culturales de la revolución de 1820. Se trató de un esfuerzo colectivo, que esperamos haber plasmado en esta compilación.

    Description: Este libro examina las ideas que forman parte del pensa­miento político, económico y filosófico latinoamericano que se convirtieron en referencia para el MIR chileno. Se describe y problematiza la relación que existía entre los científicos sociales latinoamericanos y la organización revolucionaria, diferenciando entre quienes cumplían un rol de referentes y quienes eran militantes del MIR. Para esto, se analizan las redes intelectuales que permitían la difusión del pensamiento a nivel general en América Latina, así como los lazos que habían establecido los intelectuales miristas con sus símiles latinoamericanos. A la par, se definen los roles que cumplían en la organización dichos intelectuales, así como la existencia de una política del MIR sobre este sujeto específico. En términos más amplios, interesa saber de qué manera el pensamiento social latinoamericano aportó a la definición del MIR y cómo la organización revolucionaria aportó, a su vez, al pensamiento político local.

    Description: In philosophical works that circulated as clandestine manuscripts, the Amsterdam physician and polemicist Isaac Orobio de Castro (1617–1687) defended Judaism intermittently against Christianity and Spinoza’s critique of religion. His two-front battle recruited rationalism, scepticism, and rabbinic tradition in complex ways. Six historians have newly explored Orobio’s context, literary ethos, and reception at the 400th anniversary of his birth.

    Description: Esta colección tiene como objetivo publicar volúmenes que expresen las reuniones de figuras de diferentes regiones del Sur. Especialmente, reuniendo trabajos presentados allí donde estas personas han realizado sus exposiciones e intercambiado sus ideas cara a cara y voz a voz. Por ello, no se trata simplemente de reunir artículos procedentes de diversas regiones de personas que nunca se conocieron, sino mostrar estas reuniones y potenciar otros encuentros, con publicaciones que les otorguen nuevo impulso. La publicación viene a ser un acto segundo, respecto del encuentro físico. Articular las intelectualidades de los sures es una tarea inmensa, que ha tenido sucesivos fracasos y algunos pequeños logros. El mayor obstáculo para articularnos ha sido la falta de interés que mostramos unas por otras, cuestión derivada del desconocimiento mutuo, del aislamiento y del peso desmedido que, en los imaginarios, poseen las intelectualidades del centro. A esto se suman, en segundo plano, la escasez de recursos económicos y cierta debilidad de las instituciones académicas. Los trabajos publicados en esta colección normalmente no se traducirán, precisamente para reconocer y explicitar que estas conversaciones obligatoriamente deberán darse de forma políglota, aunque normalmente se trate de las lenguas de las colonizaciones.

    Description: This volume aims to examine the literary and socio-historical relationship between the Books of Chronicles and the priestly literature in the Pentateuch and in Ezekiel. Experts across this body of literature come together to examine the connections and interactions between specific texts, ideas, and socio-historical contexts of the literary works, as well as explore broader themes in the relationship between them.

    Description: Este libro está concebido como parte de un amplio proyecto de investigación. Parte de la premisa de que el debate en torno al concepto "pueblo" y la realidad material que éste désigna, no es un ejercicio meramente intelectual que busca responder "cuestiones histôricas muertas" fases ya pasadas que no volverân a reproducirse hoy ni en el futuro. Esto es así porque hace a la misma naturaleza de la realidad de la sociedad capitalista, en tanto modo de producciôn epocal signado por el conflicto clasista. Mientras exista lucha de clases y capitalismo, permanecerá y será reproducido el "populismo". Primer volumen de una obra gênerai cuyos propôsitos más amplios son los de analizar el conflicto entre "clase" y "pueblo" en la tradiciôn marxista suscitada después de la muerte de Engels hasta nuestros días.

    Description: Este libro que se ofrece al lector, es producto del trabajo realizado entre los años 2016 y 2018, en el contexto del proyecto de investigación Fondecyt Regular, cuyo tirulo es Planes sociales de empleo y protección social para la (desigualdad: los casos de Brasil, Chile y Venezuela (2005-2013). Ello permitió invitar a distintos intelectuales y expertos a reflexionar acerca de los Modelos de Desarrollo en América Latina, en función de sus apuestas, tensiones y desafíos. Nos interesó centrar la preocupación en la visibilidad y análisis de la relación entre ideología, modelos de desarrollo y políticas públicas-sociales del Estado para los países y la región, porque en Latinoamérica, desde el 2000 en adelante, diversos gobiernos se propusieron impulsar políticas alternativas al modelo de desarrollo neoliberal, inaugurando el ’ciclo progresista" en la región bajo lo que se definió como Neodesarrollismo, Socialismo del Siglo XXI y/o del Buen Vivir.

    Description: The great merit and originality of this book lies in the fact that it analyzes the process of the creation of the Marxist theory of dependency by investigating the writings of its founders, now deceased, and through the current reflections of several of its closest collaborators. The current generations of students and researchers may not know this theory and its significance or only have a vague idea about it because it was formulated more than half a century ago and was displaced by the neoliberal dogmatic turn. I invite you to read this book to respond to current challenges by rescuing and renewing Latin American critical thinking (Cristobal Kay).

    Description: La aspiración de la emancipación remite no solo a los conflictos que suponen la conquista de la independencia y la soberanía de los pueblos y naciones. Incluye, de manera directa a la dimensión mental. Esta fórmula se diseñó al calor de un intenso siglo XIX en América Latina y el Caribe y se instaló permanentemente como un desafío que continuó movilizando la imaginación en la centuria siguiente. Pero las formas de la emancipación encuentran necesidad de una sociología que las piense, las procese, las analice. En este libro se aportan elementos para enriquecer el repertorio por el cual atravesar los diversos senderos que involucran al desafío permanente de la emancipación mental.

    Description: At present, the interrelation of people, countries and cultures is undeniable. The advances in communications, the greater facility in the transfer of people, merchandise and capital; but also the supranational institutional advances resulting from globalization have generated phenomena rarely seen before and that require new tools for their analysis. Our intention in bringing together the different contributions was to offer a range of issues and problems that do not exhaust the increasingly broad and complex agenda of problems arising from migratory groups. But we believe that the quality and diversity of the works presented here undoubtedly constitute a valuable contribution to the production of knowledge and the scientific debate about the construction of citizenship in a global world.

This was the objective of the International Seminar 200 years later. The Andes at the crossroads of the Independences (Seville, December 2021) that we now present in this volume. The purpose of the activity was to analyze and study as a whole the Independence processes in the Andean region and the reciprocal impact of the events in Spain after the Riego uprising in 1820, with the triumph of revolutionary liberalism in Spain and the reestablishment of the Constitution. of Cadiz both in the peninsula and in America. Without forgetting the impact of the liberal revolution in Portugal in 1820, its influence on the independence of Brazil and its repercussion in the Andean region. The Seminar was organized by the Area of ​​American History of the Pablo de Olavide University of Seville, the International University of Andalusia and the La Rábida Group of Ibero-American Universities.

    Description: El libro trata sobre uno de los interrogantes científicos más importantes para el conocimiento de la historia de la humanidad: ¿cómo surgen, se organizan, se mueven y se transforman las sociedades? Pregunta que, al igual que los problemas centrales de la ciencia, no encuentra su origen en los estrechos muros de los ámbitos académicos, sino que responde a la necesidad que, como sociedad, tenemos de conocernos, dilucidar quiénes somos y hacia dónde vamos. De te fabula narratur: de ti, de vos, de mí, de él, de ella, de todos nosotros, habla la Historia. A través de veinte capítulos, ofrecemos al lector una aproximación a los más recientes debates, así como a flamantes investigaciones, dedicadas a la cuestión del vínculo entre los sistemas productivos americanos, las revoluciones y las transiciones sociales. Esperamos que este libro contribuya a divulgar la necesidad de conocer el pasado para comprender el presente y transformar el futuro, ofreciendo más pruebas de que la Historia habla de nosotros, aunque refiera, ocasionalmente, a indígenas, mitayos u obreras fabriles. De te fabula narratur…

    Description: El sentido de este libro se fundamenta en la idea de formar un corpus de estudios críticos, cuya orientación es la entrega de distintas aproximaciones a la producción de escritores latinoamericanos y chilenos. Para tal efecto, se discuten hitos fundacionales de la crítica en Latinoamérica del siglo XX, junto a la valoración y actualidad de esos proyectos, que dieron origen a diversos “conceptos fundantes”. En el caso de los trabajos sobre poesía y narrativa, el análisis de obras y autores se despliega en épocas y procesos variados, cuya reflexión, por ese mismo hecho, se sitúa en distintas estéticas y problemas, de ahí que el desafío de entregar nuevas lecturas demandó plantearse y resolver cuestiones teóricas y metodológicas

Ha sido escrito por veinte filósofas/os y pensadoras/es latinoamericanos y europeos que tratan de dar cuenta del deterioro creciente de los espacios democráticos en nuestras sociedades, del atropello creciente de los derechos económicos-sociales y del avance de la inhumanidad en las relaciones internacionales que se despliegan desde la pequeña isla de Haití hasta el sur de América poniendo en jaque las exigencias contextúales de la justicia.

    Description: Following Levita’s statement, the Masorah transmitted by medieval illuminated manuscripts was generally considered as less significant for the study of the biblical and masoretical knowledge in the Jewish world. The biblical codices produced in Ashkenaz were considerably disregarded compared to Spanish codices. Challenging this assertion, this work engages in a reflection on the link between the standard Eastern tradition and the Ashkenazic biblical text-culture of the 13th century. Élodie Attia provides an edition of thirteen cases taken from MS Vat. Ebr. 14, offering the oldest series of Masoretic notes written inside figurative and ornamental designs. Its critical apparatus offers an unprecedented comparison with the oldest Eastern and Ashkenazic sources to evaluate if the scribe paid more attention to aesthetic details than to the textual contents. In an unexpected way, the Masoretic notes of Elijah ha-Naqdan, even written in figurative forms, show a close philological link with the Masorah of the eastern Tiberian sources and prove that the presence of figurative elements neither represents a loss nor a distortion of Masoretic knowledge, but rather illustrates a development in the Masoretic tradition.

    Description: This book suggests the importance of examining alternative discourses in the social sciences, in this case economics, beyond western-centric cultural milieu. The account attempts to unveil the existence of a post Second World War economic approach developed in Latin America. The perspective questioned the dominant economic science disseminated within and outside the Anglo-Saxon or Eurocentric countries (western-centric academia) during the 1950´s. Today, after the appalling cataclysms in welfare and equality generated by neoclassical economics, an alternative economics seems order in the Northern and Southern hemisphere. The rebirth of Latin American Structuralism within the developing countries, and the widely publicized names of Raúl Prebisch, Celso Furtado among others, within the western-centric audiences requires an up to date of the vocabulary and concepts. Retrospectively these authors discussed can be examined as the original sources in Latin America among those who developed the basis of decolonial thought. The book problematizes the domestication of Latin American Structuralism in the Northern or Southern hemisphere alike and discusses its potential similarities to Post-Keynesian perspectives related to power asymmetries among countries, firms, and heterogenous agents.

    Description: This volume concludes the edition, translation, and commentary of the first order of the "Jerusalem Talmud". It contains four small but important tractates. The first, Ma‘aser Šeni, deals with Second Tithe (Deut. 14:22-27) and the fourth-year fruit of a newly planted tree (Lev. 19:24). This is sanctified food, to be consumed by the laity at the holy precinct, for which redemption is expressly authorized. The tractate deals in large part with the problems of redemption of dedicated food. In addition, there is a long section on the interpretation of dreams, and a detailed description of the ceremony of presentation of the tithe in the Temple. The second tractate, Hallah, details the application of the general rules of heave to the Cohen’s part of any bread dough. The third tractate, ‘Orlah, the fruit of a newly planted tree during the first three years (Lev. 19:23), treats this as paradigm for all food whose usufruct is forbidden, and most of the tractate discusses the problems that may arise if any such food is not immediately disposed of. The last tractate, Bikkurim, describes the rules for selection and presentation of First Fruits in the Temple on or after Pentecost. The rite is given in detail, with an excursus on the honor due elders. A first appendix shows the position of the Tosephta as intermediary between Yerushalmi and Babli tradition, with a distinct slant towards Babylonian positions. A second appendix tries to identify the main authors of the tractates of this first order.

    Description: The volume that the reader has in his hands (or on his screen) constitutes a selection of the studies presented at the international congress “1820. The Illusion of Freedom. Revolutionary liberalism in Spain and America in the 1920s ”, held in Las Cabezas de San Juan and Seville in March 2020, as a way to reflect (and celebrate, of course) the bicentennial of the revolution that began the so-called Liberal Triennium Spanish. The anniversary functioned as an excuse to analyze relevant problems of the present. In this case, the congress returned to the links between a stagnant society, which had nothing else to offer, and one of the most important revolutions that took place in the Iberian Peninsula. This was done through the presentation of a set of investigations that addressed the economic, political, social and cultural aspects of the Spanish revolution of 1820, and that crossed the Ibero-American world in the first half of the 19th century. It was a collective effort, which we hope we have embodied in this compilation.

    Description: In this volume, six historians explore new approaches to Isaac Orobio de Castro (1617–1687), an Amsterdam physician who was the most widely-read among the early modern defenders of Judaism against Christian proselytizing. He was also the major author who rebutted Benedict Spinoza’s Freethought from inside his own Sephardic community. Reflecting on the developments in early modern studies that have appeared since the publication of Yosef Kaplan’s seminal monograph in 1982, the authors revisit Orobio’s intellectual personality with a focus on transcultural processes, clandestine book culture, philosophical rhetoric, and literary reception. Born in Portugal to Christian parents of Jewish ancestry, Orobio left behind a brilliant career as a court physician in Spain and France when he publicly embraced Judaism. With academic erudition, he translated Jewish religious positions into the eclectic philosophy of the day, using both rationalist and sceptic arguments. His work leaked out into the non-Jewish world and armed Enlightenment philosophers for their attacks on Christianity, showing the impact of Jewish criticism on the early modern quest for philosophical certainty and religious pluralism.

Frente a la consolidación del modelo de acumulación extractivista, se multiplican las luchas por la tierra y el territorio, y proliferan los estudios sobre el tema. En ese marco, el présente texto exhibe los complejos vínculos entre condiciones materiales y dimensiones simbólicas. Se trata del territorio como sitio-objeto de producción y expresión, pero también como conjunto de símbolos y percepciones compartidas. Ciertamente el territorio es habitado por la memoria, la experiencia y el proyecto de los pueblos. Al mismo tiempo, los escritos aquí desplegados dejan entrever la presencia de un vasto universo de organizaciones sociales con importante visibilidad pública y anclaje territorial en la América Latina contemporánea.

    Description: This book focuses on Abraham Abulafia's esoteric thought in relation to Maimonides, Maimonideans, and Islamic thought in the line of Leo Strauss' theory of the history of philosophy. A survey of Abulafia's sources leads into an analysis of the esoteric meaning on the famous parable of the three rings, considering also the possible connection between this parable, which Abdulafia inserted into a book dedicated to his student, the 13th century rabbi Nathan the wise, and the Lessing's Play Nathan the Wise. The book also examines Abulafia's universalistic understanding of the nature of the Bible, the Hebrew language, and the people of Israel (or the Sinaic revelation). The universal aspects of Abulafia’s thought have been put in relief against the more widespread Kabbalistic views which are predominantly particularistic. A number of texts have also been identified here for the first time as authored by Abulafia.

    Description: The series Studies and Texts in Scepticism contains monographs, translations, and collected essays exploring scepticism in its dual manifestation as a purely philosophical tradition and as a set of sceptical strategies, concepts, and attitudes in the cultural field - especially in religions, perhaps most notably in Judaism. In such cultural contexts scepticism manifests as a critical attitude towards different dimensions and systems of secular or revealed knowledge and towards religious and political authorities. It is not merely an intellectual or theoretical worldview, but a critical form of life that expresses itself in such diverse phenomena as religion, literature, and society.

    Description: After half a century of occupation and tremendous costs of the conflict, Israel is still struggling with the idea of a Palestinian state in what is often perceived as the Biblical Eretz Israel. Mapping Zionism, enemy images, peace and war policies, as well as democracy within the Jewish State, the present study offers original insights into Israel’s role in this conflict. By analyzing Israeli history, politics and security-oriented political culture as it has been evolving from 1948 on, this book reveals the ideological and political structures of a Zionist-oriented state and society. In doing so, it uncovers the abyss between the Zionist vision of Eretz Israel on the one hand and the aspiration to achieve normalization, peace and security on the other. In view of this conflict-laden bi-national reality, the Palestinian question is identified as the Achilles‘ heel of Jewish statehood in the Land of Israel. Thus, Zionist Israel and the Question of Palestine provides a fresh, innovative, critical and yet accessible perspective on one of the most controversial issues in contemporary history.

In the first study on the subject, Igor De Souza examines this dynamic tradition in its most creative period. Rather than mere interpretation, De Souza reads commentaries as texts in their own right. At the same time, he illustrates how texts are reimagined through commentary, and repurposed for new generations of readers.

    Description: The ninth volume of this edition, translation, and commentary of the Jerusalem Talmud contains two Tractates. The first Tractate, “Documents”, treats divorce law and principles of agency when written documents are required. Collateral topics are the rules for documents of manumission, those for sealed documents whose contents may be hidden from witnesses, the rules by which the divorced wife can collect the moneys due her, the requirement that both divorcer and divorcee be of sound mind, and the rules of conditional divorce. The second Tractate, “Nazirites”, describes the Nasirean vow and is the main rabbinic source about the impurity of the dead. As in all volumes of this edition, a (Sephardic rabbinic) vocalized text is presented, with parallel texts used as source of variant readings. A new translation is accompanied by an extensive commentary explaining the rabbinic background of all statements and noting Talmudic and related parallels. Attention is drawn to the extensive Babylonization of the Giṭṭin text compared to genizah texts.

    Description: The following work proposes an overview of what we could consider as one of the guiding problems for Latin American reflection in the first half of the 20th century (and, as argued in the same chapter, throughout the development of the Latin American thought): the question of authenticity. I know It deals with a problem in which José Gaos played a fundamental role; not only for wondering from his residence in Mexico about what (Latin) American of our philosophical tradition, but because he was the teacher trainer of the following generations that assumed as a cultural task the question of a properly Latin American philosophy-Highlighting the figure of Leopoldo Zea. Curiously In this perspective, Chilean philosophy will only find out in the second mid-twentieth century with Félix Schwartzmann and Luis Oyarzún, who put Chile, from a tradition different from that of Gaos, as place of enunciation. Juan Miguel Chávez and Gonzalo García propose that the desire for authenticity continues to operate in the proposals current that have revitalized the tradition of the essay; even more, they point out that it is a recursive topic in the history of comings whose. An attempt at explanation leads to the sociology of knowledge.

    Description: The Song of Songs, a lyric cycle of love scenes without a narrative plot, has often been considered as the Bible’s most beautiful and enigmatic book. The present study questions the still dominant exegetical convention that merges all of the Song’s voices into the dialogue of a single couple, its composite heroine Shulamit being a projection screen for norms of womanhood. An alternative socio-spatial reading, starting with the Hebrew text’s strophic patterns and its references to historical realia, explores the poem’s artful alternation between courtly, urban, rural, and pastoral scenes with their distinct characters. The literary construction of social difference juxtaposes class-specific patterns of consumption, mobility, emotion, power structures, and gender relations. This new image of the cycle as a detailed poetic frieze of ancient society eventually leads to a precise hypothesis concerning its literary and religious context in the Hellenistic age, as well as its geographical origins in the multiethnic borderland east of the Jordan. In a Jewish echo of anthropological skepticism, the poem emphasizes the plurality and relativity of the human condition while praising the communicative powers of pleasure, fantasy, and multifarious Eros.

    Description: The present volume is the eleventh in the series of the Jerusalem Talmud, the first in a three volume edition, translation, and commentary of the Fourth Order Neziqin. The thirty chapters of Neziqin that deal with most aspects of Civil Law are usually divided into three parts, or “gates”, known as the First Gate, Bava qamma, the Middle Gate, Bava mesi‘a, and the Last Gate, Bava batra. In contrast to the Babylonian Talmud, the treatment in the Jerusalem Talmud is fragmentary. The reason for this is a matter of controversy, discussed in the Introduction to the Tractate.

    Description: The term ´Judeo-Christian` in reference to a tradition, heritage, ethic, civilization, faith etc. has been used in a wide variety of contexts with widely diverging meanings. Contrary to popular belief, the term was not coined in the United States in the middle of the 20th century but in 1831 in Germany by Ferdinand Christian Baur. By acknowledging and returning to this European perspective and context, the volume engages the historical, theological, philosophical and political dimensions of the term`s development. Scholars of European intellectual history will find this volume timely and relevant.

    Description: Drawing on the variety of archival sources in the host of European and Oriental languages, the book focuses on the history, ethnography, and convoluted ethnic identity of the Polish-Lithuanian Karaites. The vanishing community of the Karaites, a non-Talmudic Turkic-speaking Jewish minority that had been living in Eastern Europe since the late Middle Ages, developed a unique ethnographic culture and religious tradition. The book offers the first comprehensive study of the dramatic history of the Polish-Lithuanian Karaite community in the twentieth century. Especially important is the analysis of the dejudaization (or Turkicization) of the community that saved the Karaites from horrors of the Holocaust.

He asks that, like the central problems of science, he does not find his origin in the narrow walls of academic fields, but rather he responds to the need that, as a society, we have to know, elucidate who we are and where we are going.

It questions what we can know through touch, what we can know about touch itself, and how our experience of touching throws us into doubt.

    Description: Hebrew manuscripts are considered to be invaluable documents and artefacts of Jewish culture and history. Research on Hebrew manuscript culture is progressing rapidly and therefore its topics, methods and questions need to be enunciated and reflected upon. The case studies assembled in this volume explore various fields of research on Hebrew manuscripts. They show paradigmatically the current developments concerning codicology and palaeography, book forms like the scroll and codex, scribes and their writing material, patrons, collectors and censors, manuscript and book collections, illuminations and fragments, and, last but not least, new methods of material analysis applied to manuscripts. The principal focus of this volume is the material and intellectual history of Hebrew book cultures from antiquity to the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period, its intention being to heighten and sharpen the reader’s understanding of Jewish social and cultural history in general.

    Description: In the last two decades a large amount of previously secret documents on Jewish issues emerged from the newly opened Communist archives. The selection of these papers published in the volume and stemming mostly from Hungarian archives will shed light on a period of Jewish history that is largely ignored because much of the current scholarship treats the Shoah as the end of Jewish history in the region. The documents introduced and commented by the editor of the volume, András Kovács, will give insight into the conditions and constraints under which the Jewish communities, first of all, the largest Jewish community of the region, the Hungarian one had to survive in the time of the post-Stalinist Communist dictatorship. They may shed light on the ways how Jewish policy of the Soviet bloc countries was coordinated and orchestrated from Moscow and by the single countries. The archival material will prove that the ruling communist parties were restlessly preoccupied with the Jewish question. This preoccupation, which kept the whole issue alive in the decades of communist rule, explains to a great extent its open reemergence in the time of transition and in the post-communist period.

    Description: The rich history of the German rabbinate came to an abrupt halt with the November Pogrom of 1938. The need to leave Germany became clear and many rabbis made use of the visas they had been offered. Their resettlement in Britain was hampered by additional obstacles such as internment, deportation, enlistment in the Pioneer Corps. But rabbis still attempted to support their fellow refugees with spiritual and pastoral care. The refugee rabbis replanted the seed of the once proud German Judaism into British soil. New synagogues were founded and institutions of Jewish learning sprung up, like rabbinic training and the continuation of Wissenschaft des Judentums. The arrival of Leo Baeck professionalized these efforts and resulted in the foundation of the Leo Baeck College in London. Refugee rabbis now settled and obtained pulpits in the many newly founded synagogues. Their arrival in Britain was the catalyst for much change in British Judaism, an influence that can still be felt today.

    Description: An unexpected immigration wave of Jews from the former Soviet Union mostly in the 1990s has stabilized and enlarged Jewish life in Germany. Jewish kindergartens and schools were opened, and Jewish museums, theaters, and festivals are attracting a wide audience. No doubt: Jews will continue to live in Germany. At the same time, Jewish life has undergone an impressing transformation in the second half of the 20th century– from rejection to acceptance, but not without disillusionments and heated debates. And while the ´new Jews of Germany,` 90 percent of them of Eastern European background, are already considered an important factor of the contemporary Jewish diaspora, they still grapple with the shadow of the Holocaust, with internal cultural clashes and with difficulties in shaping a new collective identity. What does it mean to live a Jewish life in present-day Germany? How are Jewish thoughts, feelings, and practices reflected in contemporary arts, literature, and movies? What will remain of the former German Jewish cultural heritage? Who are the new Jewish elites, and how successful is the fight against anti-Semitism? This volume offers some answers.
