Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the small village of Holm, Tora and her family live a safe, regular life despite an outside world awash in myth. Young Tora has heard many wondrous tales of the strange people and places beyond the walls of Holm. She always hoped that maybe, someday, she might have the opportunity to see it all for herself—but she never expected that hope to become a nightmare. What begins as an act of neighborliness takes on an ominous tone when Tora and her mother visit Helga, a neighbor with a newborn. With gray skin and black eyes, the baby’s horrid screams leave no doubt there is something wrong. Helga claims an evil creature took her baby, leaving a monster behind, and Tora soon learns Helga is right. Tora’s life takes a traumatic turn when the seasonal workers arrive for the summer. A young man with piercing blue eyes and mysterious tattoos is among them, and things will never be the same. In a valley long ago teeming with magic and trolls, Tora uncovers secrets she couldn’t have imagined and sets off a series of disturbing events that alter her life forever.

Download or read book Torah as Teacher written by Kent Reynolds and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-05-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite extensive study of the poetic features of Psalm 119, the conceptions it advocates and its contribution to developing Judaism have not been well understood; indeed some scholars have dismissed the psalm as containing little more than wearisome repetition. Reynolds distinguishes between the psalmist and the speaker within the psalm. The psalmist portrays the speaker as an exemplary Torah student and thereby promotes the contemplation of Torah as a facet of ethical instruction. Using this new perspective, Reynolds contributes a fresh and coherent understanding of the ideas in Psalm 119. He explains the function of its length and highlights its emphasis on Torah study that became axiomatic in Rabbinic Judaism.

Download or read book Jewish Agricultural Utopias in America 1880 1910 written by Uri D. Herscher and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive treatment of America's Jewish farming utopias revealing the confluence of American and Jewish utopian traditions and measures the impact of the American experiments on the nascent kibbutz movement in Palestine. Brook Farm, Oneida, Amana, and Nauvoo are familiar names in American history. Far less familiar are New Odessa, Bethlehem-Jehudah, Cotopaxi, and Alliance—the Brook Farms and Oneidas of the Jewish people in North America. The wealthy, westernized leaders of late nineteenth-century American Jewry and a member of the immigrating Russian Jews shared an eagerness to "repeal" the lengthy socioeconomic history in which European Jews were confined to petty commerce and denied agricultural experience. A small group of immigrant Jews chose to ignore urbanization and industrialization, defy the depression afflicting agriculture in the late 1800s, and devote themselves to experiments in collective farming in America. Some of these idealists were pious; others were agnostics or atheists. Some had the support of American and West European philanthropists; others were willing to go it alone. But in the farming colonies they founded in Oregon, Colorado, the Dakotas, Michigan, Louisiana, Arkansas, Virginia, and New Jersey, among other places, they were sublimely indifferent to the need for careful planning and thus had limited success. Only in New Jersey, close to markets and supporters in New York and Philadelphia, were colonization efforts combined with agro-industrial enterprises; consequently, these colonies were able to survive for as long as one generation.

Download or read book Swarnalata written by Tilottoma Misra and published by Zubaan. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in mid-nineteenth century Assam when the forces of tradition were being challenged by new concepts of modernity, Swarnalata is the story of three women from very different social backgrounds each caught in the whirlpool of change, each trying to chart out her own course in life heroically, silently. As the intertwined lives of Swarnalata, Tora and Lakhi unfold, the reader is taken on a fascinating journey into the social milieu of the times where issues like women’s education and widow remarriage held centre stage. The plight of indentured labour, peasant resistance against colonial exploitation, the reformist initiatives of the Brahmo Samaj and the proselytizing efforts of the Christian missionaries are themes that run throughout the narrative. Real historical personages—such as Rabindranath Tagore—are presented side by side with fictional characers, resulting in a wonderful blend of history and fiction. Swarnalata was first published in Asomiya in 1991. It was awarded the Ishan Puraskar by the Bhartiya Bhasha Parishad in 1995 and translated into Bangla and Hindi under the ‘Adaan-Pradaan’ programme of the National Book Trust. The Asomiya original is now in its fourth edition and has received wide critical acclaim in the last 15 years. Published by Zubaan.
