Book Synopsis Jüdische Kultur(en) im Neuen Europa by : Marina Dmitrieva
Download or read book Jüdische Kultur(en) im Neuen Europa written by Marina Dmitrieva and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2004 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der aus einer internationalen Tagung des Forschungsprojektes "Visuelle und historische Kulturen Ostmitteleuropas seit 1918" am Geisteswissenschaftlichen Zentrum Geschichte und Kultur Ostmitteleuropas (Leipzig) hervorgegangene Band widmet sich in einer interdisziplinarkulturwissenschaftlichen Perspektive den unterschiedlichen Facetten judischer Kultur(en) im ostlichen Europa der Zwischenkriegszeit. Am Beispiel Wilnas wird untersucht, welche Modelle des "Jude-Seins" im Spannungsfeld widerstreitender nationaler Identitatskonstruktionen der verschiedenen stadtischen Bevolkerungsgruppen entworfen und wie sie vermittelt wurden. Um einer ethnozentrischen Sichtweise zu entgehen und einen integrativen Zugang zum Thema zu ermoglichen, werden neben den judischen Entwurfen auch diejenigen von Litauern und Polen in den Blick genommen. Das Spektrum der untersuchten Bereiche erstreckt sich von der Fotografie und der bildenden Kunst uber die Literatur und Publizistik bis hin zu wissenschaftlichen Diskursen in Linguistik und Geschichtsschreibung.

Book Synopsis Jews and the Sporting Life by : Ezra Mendelsohn
Download or read book Jews and the Sporting Life written by Ezra Mendelsohn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-03-31 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume XXIII of the distinguished annual Studies in Contemporary Jewry explores the role of sports in modern Jewish history. The centrality of sports in modern life--in popular and even in high culture, in economic life, in the media, in international and national politics, and in forging ethnic identities--can hardly be exaggerated, but in the field of Jewish studies this subject has been somewhat neglected, at least until recently. Students of American Jewish history, for example, often emphasize the role of sports in the Americanization of the immigrants, while students of Jewish nationalism pay closer attention to its appeal for the regeneration of the Jewish nation, as well as the creation of a new, healthy, Jewish body. The essays brought together in Jews and the Sporting Life expand the body of knowledge about the place sports occupied, and continue to occupy, in Jewish life. They examine the connection between sports and Jewish nationalism, particularly Zionism, and how organized Jewish sports have been an agent of nation-building. They consider the role of Jews as owners of sports teams, as amateur and professional athletes, and as fans and bettors. Other themes include sports and Jewish literature, and boxing as a sport that enabled Jewish men to prove their masculinity in a world that often stereotyped them as weak and "feminine." This volume concentrates on twentieth century developments in Israel, Europe, and the United States.
Book Synopsis Neue Staaten - neue Bilder? by : Arnold Bartetzky
Download or read book Neue Staaten - neue Bilder? written by Arnold Bartetzky and published by Böhlau Verlag Köln Weimar. This book was released on 2005 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das 20. Jahrhundert erlebte infolge der beiden Weltkriege und des Zusammenbruchs der kommunistischen Regime eine Reihe von Staatsgründungen und Systemwechseln. Im Jahre 1918 triumphierte das Nationalstaatsprinzip, die Neuordnung nach 1945 brachte ein Vorrücken des sozialistischen Systems nach Zentraleuropa und dessen Zerfall in den Jahren 1989/90 zog schließlich in zahlreichen Ländern erneut einen Wandel nach sich. In jeder Umbruchssituation waren die Staaten mit der Neubestimmung ihres Selbstverständnisses und ihrer Selbstdarstellung konfrontiert. Dieser Band betrachtet die Visualisierungsstrategien staatlicher Macht in den Spannungsfeldern zwischen Modernisierung und Kontinuität, zwischen Europäisierung und nationaler Tradition.

Book Synopsis Prophets of the Past by : Michael Brenner
Download or read book Prophets of the Past written by Michael Brenner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophets of the Past is the first book to examine in depth how modern Jewish historians have interpreted Jewish history. Michael Brenner reveals that perhaps no other national or religious group has used their shared history for so many different ideological and political purposes as the Jews. He deftly traces the master narratives of Jewish history from the beginnings of the scholarly study of Jews and Judaism in nineteenth-century Germany; to eastern European approaches by Simon Dubnow, the interwar school of Polish-Jewish historians, and the short-lived efforts of Soviet-Jewish historians; to the work of British and American scholars such as Cecil Roth and Salo Baron; and to Zionist and post-Zionist interpretations of Jewish history. He also unravels the distortions of Jewish history writing, including antisemitic Nazi research into the "Jewish question," the Soviet portrayal of Jewish history as class struggle, and Orthodox Jewish interpretations of history as divinely inspired. History proved to be a uniquely powerful weapon for modern Jewish scholars during a period when they had no nation or army to fight for their ideological and political objectives, whether the goal was Jewish emancipation, diasporic autonomy, or the creation of a Jewish state. As Brenner demonstrates in this illuminating and incisive book, these historians often found legitimacy for these struggles in the Jewish past.
Book Synopsis Vilna as a Centre of the Modern Jewish Press, 1840-1928 by : Susanne Marten-Finnis
Download or read book Vilna as a Centre of the Modern Jewish Press, 1840-1928 written by Susanne Marten-Finnis and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vilna (Polish Wilno), modern Vilnius and capital of Lithuania, was the traditional spiritual and intellectual centre of Jewish thought in the Russian Empire. It was often referred to as the 'Jerusalem of Lithuania', a term that has now come to stand for the lost world of Jewish life in Europe. Most people today learned what they know about this Vilna from autobiographies or personal memoirs. This book takes a more objective look at how Vilna became a uniquely important centre of the Jewish press. In particular it follows the development of the Jewish press within the context of modernising Imperial Russia during the second half of the nineteenth century. Vilna is revealed as an important centre for the Jewish Socialist movement, the Bund, towards the turn of the nineteenth century and in the years running up to the 1905 Revolution. Bundist journalism is discovered to be the sponsor of a Jewish cultural ideology called Yiddishism.

Book Synopsis Abraham Joshua Heschel by : Stanisław Krajewski
Download or read book Abraham Joshua Heschel written by Stanisław Krajewski and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is devoted to the thought of one of the 20th century's most interesting philosophers of religion. Heschel, a traditional Polish Jew who became a modern thinker, was also an impressive prophet of interreligious dialogue. The book is the fruit of a scholarly conference held in 2007 at the University of Warsaw, in Heschel's native city, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth. Given the depth and scope of his thinking, the papers gathered in the volume will be of interest not only to philosophers, theologians, and scholars of Heschel, but also to those who know little about Heschel but are interested in the fundamental problems that appear at the borders between philosophy and theology, religion and modernity, Judaism and Christianity, and, more broadly, problems of interfaith relations and their future. Among the contributors to the volume there are many of the foremost Heschel scholars from the United States and Israel, as well as authors from Poland and other European countries. The authors believe that the infl uence of Heschel will continue to grow worldwide.

Book Synopsis Writing Jewish Culture by : Andreas Kilcher
Download or read book Writing Jewish Culture written by Andreas Kilcher and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Looks at the ethnographic issues while defining Jewishness in a very fresh, sophisticated way . . . very timely and important.” —Washington Book Review Focusing on Eastern and Central Europe before WWII, this collection explores various genres of “ethnoliterature” across temporal, geographical, and ideological borders as sites of Jewish identity formation and dissemination. Challenging the assumption of cultural uniformity among Ashkenazi Jews, the contributors consider how ethnographic literature defines Jews and Jewishness, the political context of Jewish ethnography, and the question of audience, readers, and listeners. With contributions from leading scholars and an appendix of translated historical ethnographies, this volume presents vivid case studies across linguistic and disciplinary divides, revealing a rich textual history that throws the complexity and diversity of a people into sharp relief.
Book Synopsis Jewish Primitivism by : Samuel J. Spinner
Download or read book Jewish Primitivism written by Samuel J. Spinner and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the beginning of the twentieth century, Jewish writers and artists across Europe began depicting fellow Jews as savages or "primitive" tribesmen. Primitivism—the European appreciation of and fascination with so-called "primitive," non-Western peoples who were also subjugated and denigrated—was a powerful artistic critique of the modern world and was adopted by Jewish writers and artists to explore the urgent questions surrounding their own identity and status in Europe as insiders and outsiders. Jewish primitivism found expression in a variety of forms in Yiddish, Hebrew, and German literature, photography, and graphic art, including in the work of figures such as Franz Kafka, Y.L. Peretz, S. An-sky, Uri Zvi Greenberg, Else Lasker-Schüler, and Moï Ver. In Jewish Primitivism, Samuel J. Spinner argues that these and other Jewish modernists developed a distinct primitivist aesthetic that, by locating the savage present within Europe, challenged the idea of the threatening savage other from outside Europe on which much primitivism relied: in Jewish primitivism, the savage is already there. This book offers a new assessment of modern Jewish art and literature and shows how Jewish primitivism troubles the boundary between observer and observed, cultured and "primitive," colonizer and colonized.
