Book Seeing Israeli and Jewish Dance

Download or read book Seeing Israeli and Jewish Dance written by Judith Brin Ingber and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive survey of historical and contemporary Jewish dance. In Seeing Israeli and Jewish Dance, choreographer, dancer, and dance scholar Judith Brin Ingber collects wide-ranging essays and many remarkable photographs to explore the evolution of Jewish dance through two thousand years of Diaspora, in communities of amazing variety and amid changing traditions. Ingber and other eminent scholars consider dancers individually and in community, defining Jewish dance broadly to encompass religious ritual, community folk dance, and choreographed performance. Taken together, this wide range of expression illustrates the vitality, necessity, and continuity of dance in Judaism. This volume combines dancers' own views of their art with scholarly examinations of Jewish dance conducted in Europe, Israel, other Middle East areas, Africa, and the Americas. In seven parts, Seeing Israeli and Jewish Dance considers Jewish dance artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; the dance of different Jewish communities, including Hasidic, Yemenite, Kurdish, Ethiopian, and European Jews in many epochs; historical and current Israeli folk dance; and the contrast between Israeli and American modern and post-modern theater dance. Along the way, contributors see dance in ancient texts like the Song of Songs, the Talmud, and Renaissance-era illuminated manuscripts, and plumb oral histories, Holocaust sources, and their own unique views of the subject. A selection of 182 illustrations, including photos, paintings, and film stills, round out this lively volume. Many of the illustrations come from private collections and have never before been published, and they represent such varied sources as a program booklet from the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and archival photos from the Israel Government Press Office. Seeing Israeli and Jewish Dance threads together unique source material and scholarly examinations by authors from Europe, Israel, and America trained in sociology, anthropology, history, cultural studies, Jewish studies, dance studies, as well as art, theater, and dance criticism. Enthusiasts of dance and performance art and a wide range of university students will enjoy this significant volume.

Book End Years Commentary

    Book Details:
  • Author : ,J.E.W.
  • Publisher : Page Publishing Inc
  • Release : 2022-05-04
  • ISBN : 1628386355
  • Pages : 418 pages

Download or read book End Years Commentary written by ,J.E.W. and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: End-Years Commentary is not like any other Christian book that has landed on your hands. As the writer puts it, it is strange: Truth is stranger than fiction, so they say. Written in simple, articulate English and never dragging anywhere in this four-hundred-page book, End-Years Commentary will surely pique its readers curiosity and hold their attention from start to finish as it uses the Old Testament against the books of Matthew and Mark and anagrams to prove that Christ is a fake, a sinner, a robber of Solomon s writings, a braggart, a serpent, a liar, an egocentric trickster who did not honor his mother, a plagiarist, and a more repugnant character that you never thought about. It is factually shown that, for two thousand years, the Christians have worshipped a false savior. Would you like to know how Jesus and his disciples added words to the Bible, which was long prophesied in the book of Proverbs? Were you taught of the lie that the New Testament is an improvement of the Old Testament and the Law of Moses? Were you taught to believe the plagiarism that is the New Testament is from God? Do you really believe Christ died for our sins? End-Years Commentary has the answers, and it answers more than satisfactorily.

Book Israelism

    Book Details:
  • Author : Hassan A. Barari
  • Publisher : Garnet Publishing Ltd
  • Release : 2012
  • ISBN : 0863724167
  • Pages : 152 pages

Download or read book Israelism written by Hassan A. Barari and published by Garnet Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2012 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, ideological discourses have dominated the Arab world. Inevitably, this has had a profound impact on the mind-set of many Arab scholars. In Israelism: Arab Scholarship on Israel, a Critical Assessment - now available in paperback - author Hassan A. Barari critically assesses the status of Israeli Studies in the Arab World. Scholars' incompetence and their lack of significant area studies skills have contributed to the underdevelopment of Israeli Studies in most Arab counties. However, the persistence of the Arab-Israel conflict, the injustice that has befallen the Palestinians, and the hegemonic ideological discourses have also greatly informed the epistemology and ontology of Arab scholarship on Israel. The author argues that, with a few rare exceptions - and despite the existence of a multitude of books, articles, and studies that have tackled Israel - Israeli Studies in the Arab world remains, by and large, weighed down by one-sided projections, ideological spin, prejudice, and a necessity to expose rather than to understand the other.
