Download or read book The Politics of Nonassimilation written by David Verbeeten and published by Northern Illinois University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the twentieth century, Eastern European Jews in the United States developed a left-wing political tradition. Their political preferences went against a fairly broad correlation between upward mobility and increased conservatism or Republican partisanship. Many scholars have sought to explain this phenomenon by invoking antisemitism, an early working-class experience, or a desire to integrate into a universal social order. In this original study, David Verbeeten instead focuses on the ways in which left-wing ideologies and movements helped to mediate and preserve Jewish identity in the context of modern tendencies toward bourgeois assimilation and ethnic dissolution. Verbeeten pursues this line of inquiry through case studies that highlight the political activities and aspirations of three "generations" of American Jews. The life of Alexander Bittelman provides a lens to examine the first generation. Born in Ukraine in 1892, Bittelman moved to New York City in 1912 and went on to become a founder of the American Communist Party after World War I. Verbeeten explores the second generation by way of the American Jewish Congress, which came together in 1918 and launched significant campaigns against discrimination within civil society before, during, and especially after World War II. Finally, he considers the third generation in relation to the activist group New Jewish Agenda, which operated from 1980 to 1992 and was known for its advocacy of progressive causes and its criticism of particular Israeli governments and policies. By focusing on individuals and organizations that have not previously been subjects of extensive investigation, Verbeeten contributes original research to the fields of American, Jewish, intellectual, and radical history. His insightful study will appeal to specialists and general readers interested in those areas.
Download or read book Shalom Rav Haggada written by Shalom Rosner and published by Maggid. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The night of the Seder is an opportunity not only to transmit our history and tradition, but to uncover new and deeper meanings in the text of the Haggada. The insights we can gain from this most ancient of books are as relevant to our lives today as they have ever been. For over two decades, Rav Shalom Rosner has delivered an annual series of shiurim on the Haggada. The Shalom Rav Haggada is a selection of those lectures, edited and adapted by Marc Lesnick. Derived from a wide spectrum of sources that include Rishonim, Aharonim, Hasidic masters, contemporary rabbanim, and scholars with an assortment of hashkafot (philosophies), this array of ideas will enable all participants at the Seder to connect to this monumental evening from their own personal perspectives. Including short introductory articles on topics relating to the Haggada and Pesah; a compelling commentary on the Haggada itself; and an insightful commentary on Shir HaShirim, traditionally recited during Pesah, the Shalom Rav Haggada is bound to spark new ideas and meaningful discourse for those participating in the Seder. This Haggada is an especially valuable resource for Seder leaders to prepare in advance the most pertinent passages for family and guests, to empower and inspire. Also includes Shir HaShirim.

Download or read book Exodus in the Jewish Experience written by Pamela Barmash and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-05-14 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exodus in the Jewish Experience: Echoes and Reverberations investigates how the Exodus has been, and continues to be, a crucial source of identity for both Jews and Judaism. It explores how the Exodus has functioned as the primary model from which Jews have created theological meaning and historical self-understanding. It probes how and why the Exodus has continued to be vital to Jews throughout the unfolding of the Jewish experience. As an interdisciplinary work, it incorporates contributions from a range of Jewish Studies scholars in order to explore the Exodus from a variety of vantage points. It addresses such topics as: the Jewish reception of the biblical text of Exodus; the progressive unfolding of the Exodus in the Jewish interpretive tradition; the religious expression of the Exodus as ritual in Judaism; and the Exodus as an ongoing lens of self-understanding for both the State of Israel and contemporary Judaism. The essays are guided by a common goal: to render comprehensible how the re-envisioning of Exodus throughout the unfolding of the Jewish experience has enabled it to function for thousands of years as the central motif for the Jewish people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arnold Eisen here calls for a fundamental rethinking of the story of modern Judaism. More than simply a study of Jewish thought on customs and rituals, Rethinking Modern Judaism explores the central role that practice plays in Judaism's encounter with modernity. "Fascinating . . . an insightful entrance point to understanding the evolution of the theologies of America's largest Jewish denominations."—Tikkun "I know of no other treatment of these issues that matches Eisen's talents for synthesizing a wide variety of historical, philosophical, and social scientific sources, and bringing them to bear in a balanced and open-minded way on the delicate questions of why modern Jews relate as they do to the practices of Judaism."—Joseph Reimer, Boston Book Review "At once an incisive survey of modern Jewish thought and an inquiry into how Jews actually live their religious lives, Mr. Eisen's book is an invaluable addition to the study of American Judaism."—Elliott Abrams, Washington Times
