  • Living Together, Living Apartby Jonathan Elukin

    Princeton University Press 2009; US$ 31.95

    This book challenges the standard conception of the Middle Ages as a time of persecution for Jews. Jonathan Elukin traces the experience of Jews in Europe from late antiquity through the Renaissance and Reformation, revealing how the pluralism of medieval society allowed Jews to feel part of their local communities despite recurrent expressions of... more...

    Continuum International Publishing 2006; US$ 170.00

    Focuses on the interconnected subjects of polemic and biblical interpretation.

  • The Unconverted Selfby Jonathan Boyarin

    University of Chicago Press 2009; US$ 30.00

    Europe’s formative encounter with its “others” is still widely assumed to have come with its discovery of the peoples of the New World. But, as Jonathan Boyarin argues, long before 1492 Christian Europe imagined itself in distinction to the Jewish difference within. The presence and image of Jews in Europe afforded the Christian... more...

    De Gruyter 2010; US$ 147.00

    This collective volume explores an aspect ofthe ?Science of Judaism? which has received little attention up until now.

  • The Artless Jewby Kalman P. Bland

    Princeton University Press 2001; US$ 32.95

    Conventional wisdom holds that Judaism is indifferent or even suspiciously hostile to the visual arts due to the Second Commandment's prohibition on creating "graven images," the dictates of monotheism, and historical happenstance. This intellectual history of medieval and modern Jewish attitudes toward art and representation overturns the modern... more...

  • People of Godby Markus Barth

    Continuum International Publishing 1983; US$ 65.00

    It makes no sense to do theological work in an ivory tower. The necessity of defining the concept 'people of God' may be illustrated by at least four elements of present-day experience: the baffling fate and often shocking politics of the State of Israel since the six-day war in 1967; the anti-Jewish elements which still shame many books written... more...

  • Judaism Despite Christianityby Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy; Paul Mendes-Flohr; Harold Stahmer; Michael Gormann-Thelen

  • The Jewish Jesusby Peter Schäfer

    Princeton University Press 2012; US$ 35.00

    In late antiquity, as Christianity emerged from Judaism, it was not only the new religion that was being influenced by the old. The rise and revolutionary challenge of Christianity also had a profound influence on rabbinic Judaism, which was itself just emerging and, like Christianity, trying to shape its own identity. In The Jewish Jesus , Peter... more...
