This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewish Contiguities and the Soundtrack of Israeli History unfolds the cultural itineraries of modern Jewish and Israeli art music. Extending from modern Jewish art music in Europe through its dislocation to British Palestine and Israel, the book captures the tensions between national rhetoric and nationalized theological tropes through the way they have been recorded in art music. Author Assaf Shelleg begins with the prehistory of Israeli art music in central and Western Europe. He introduces the reader to the various aesthetic dilemmas in the history of modern Jewish art music, ranging from auto-exoticism to Jewish self-hatred. Moving on to consider the Hebrew culture, he discusses the institutionalization of art music in British Palestine and the dilution of romanticist nationalism during the interregnum of Israeli statehood. Delving into the proliferation of styles in the 1950s and '60s, Shelleg examines the collapse of traditional Hebrew templates and the concomitant surge of linear compositional devices inspired by Arab Jewish music. By the 1970s, he reveals, Israeli composers saw musical Judaism as a cultural discourse that transcended the nation; they deterritorialized the national discourse at the same time that religious Zionist circles had been translating theology into politics. Shelleg unearths the various cultural constraints and dialectics that played a pivotal role in the dislocation of modern Jewish art music to Israel, and looks at the Jewish undercurrents of Hebrew culture and how Jewish secularized concepts outgrew their national functions. Jewish Contiguities and the Soundtrack of Israeli History will be essential reading for scholars of Jewish and Israeli music, culture, and history

Download or read book Textual Transmission in Contemporary Jewish Cultures written by Avriel Bar-Levav and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-27 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewish culture places a great deal of emphasis on texts and their means of transmission. At various points in Jewish history, the primary mode of transmission has changed in response to political, geographical, technological, and cultural shifts. Contemporary textual transmission in Jewish culture has been influenced by secularization, the return to Hebrew and the emergence of modern Yiddish, and the new centers of Jewish life in the United States and in Israel, as well as by advancements in print technology and the invention of the Internet. Volume XXXI of Studies in Contemporary Jewry deals with various aspects of textual transmission in Jewish culture in the last two centuries. Essays in this volume examine old and new kinds of media and their meanings; new modes of transmission in fields such as Jewish music; and the struggle to continue transmitting texts under difficult political circumstances. Two essays analyze textual transmission in the works of giants of modern Jewish literature: S.Y. Agnon, in Hebrew, and Isaac Bashevis Singer, in Yiddish. Other essays discuss paratexts in the East, print cultures in the West, and the organization of knowledge in libraries and encyclopedias.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nel suo quarto volume l'autore, Pietro Micaroni, passa ad esplorare e commentare i libri "sapienziali", da Giobbe a Siracide. Ci aspetteremmo di trovare in questi libri idee, pensieri profondi, che trascendano dai limiti di una o più religioni per diventare patrimonio dell'umanità, allo stesso modo della filosofia greca. Purtroppo non è così, la saggezza biblica è davvero poco profonda, per nulla originale, di scarso interesse già all'epoca della sua elaborazione, figurarsi al giorno d'oggi. Si tratta di riflessioni funzionali ad una religione legata a doppio filo con il potere, anzi essa stessa potere assoluto e spietato, in cui le classi subalterne, i figli, le donne, gli schiavi erano le vittime predestinate. L'autore vi aiuta a scoprire le contraddizioni e la pochezza di questo pensiero, di certo sopravvalutato solo perché acriticamente accettato dai credenti delle religioni cristiane e dell'ebraismo.
