Untying the Knot
On Riddles and Other Enigmatic Modes
AvGalit Hasan-Rokem,David Shulman
Inbunden, Engelska, 1997
3 855 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Untying the Knot collects eighteen previously unpublished essays on the riddle--a genre of discourse found in virtually every human culture. Hasan-Rokem and Shulman have drawn these essays from a variety of cultural perspectives and disciplines; linguists, anthropologists, folklorists, and religion and literature scholars consider riddling practices in Hebrew, Finnish, Indian languages, Chinese, and classical Greek. The authors seek to understand the peculiar expressive power of the riddle, and the cultural logic of its particular uses; they scrutinize the riddle's logical structure and linguistic strategies, as well as its affinity to neighboring genres such as enigmas, puzzles, oracular prophecy, proverbs, and dreams. In this way, they begin to answer how riddles relate to the conceptual structures of a particular culture, and how they come to represent a culture's cosmology or cognitive map of the world. More importantly, these essays reveal the human need for symbolic ordering--riddles being one such form of cultural ritual.

Tales of the Neighborhood
Jewish Narrative Dialogues in Late Antiquity
AvGalit Hasan-Rokem
Inbunden, Engelska, 2003

In this lively and intellectually engaging book, Galit Hasan-Rokem shows that religion is shaped not only in the halls of theological disputation and institutions of divine study, but also in ordinary events of everyday life. Common aspects of human relations offer a major source for the symbols of religious texts and rituals of late antique Judaism as well as its partner in narrative dialogues, early Christianity, Hasan-Rokem argues. Focusing on the "neighborhood" of the Galilee that is the birthplace of many major religious and cultural developments, this book brings to life the riddles, parables, and folktales passed down in Rabbinic stories from the first half of the first millennium of the Common Era.

Folklore and Midrash in Rabbinic Literature

Web of Life weaves its suggestive interpretation of Jewish culture in the Palestine of late antiquity on the warp of a singular, breathtakingly tragic, and sublime rabbinic text, Lamentations Rabbah. The textual analyses that form the core of the book are informed by a range of theoretical paradigms rarely brought to bear on rabbinic literature: structural analysis of mythologies and folktales, performative approaches to textual production, feminist theory, psychoanalytical analysis of culture, cultural criticism, and folk narrative genre analysis.The concept of context as the hermeneutic basis for literary interpretation reactivates the written text and subverts the hierarchical structures with which it has been traditionally identified. This book reinterprets rabbinic culture as an arena of multiple dialogues that traverse traditional concepts of identity regarding gender, nation, religion, and territory. The author's approach is permeated by the idea that scholarly writing about ancient texts is invigorated by an existential hermeneutic rooted in the universality of human experience. She thus resorts to personal experience as an idiom of communication between author and reader and between human beings of our time and of the past. This research acknowledges the overlap of poetic and analytical language as well as the language of analysis and everyday life.In eliciting folk narrative discourses inside the rabbinic text, the book challenges traditional views about the social basis that engendered these texts. It suggests the subversive potential of the constitutive texts of Jewish culture from late antiquity to the present by pointing out the inherent multi-vocality of the text, adding to the conventionally acknowledged synagogue and academy the home, the marketplace, and other private and public socializing institutions.

Louis Ginzberg's Legends of the Jews
Ancient Jewish Folk Literature Reconsidered

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
At the beginning of the twentieth century, many perceived American Jewry to be in a state of crisis as traditions of faith faced modern sensibilities. Published beginning in 1909, Rabbi and Professor Louis Ginzberg’s seven-volume The Legends of the Jews appeared at this crucial time and offered a landmark synthesis of aggadah from classical Rabbinic literature and ancient folk legends from a number of cultures. It remains a hugely influential work of scholarship from a man who shaped American Conservative Judaism. In Louis Ginzberg’s Legends of the Jews: Ancient Jewish Folk Literature Reconsidered, editors Galit Hasan-Rokem and Ithamar Gruenwald present a range of reflections on the Legends, inspired by two plenary sessions devoted to its centennial at the Fifteenth Congress of the World Association of Jewish Studies in August 2009.In order to provide readers with the broadest possible view of Ginzberg’s colossal project and its repercussions in contemporary scholarship, the editors present leading scholars to address it from a variety of historical, philological, philosophical, and methodological perspectives. Contributors give special regard to the academic expertise and professional identity of the author of the Legends as a folklore scholar and include discussions on the folkloristic underpinnings of The Legends of the Jews. They also investigate, each according to her or his disciplinary framework, the uniqueness, strengths, and weakness of the project. An introduction by Rebecca Schorsch and a preface by Galit Hasan-Rokem further highlight the folk narrative aspects of the work in addition to the articles themselves.The present volume makes clear the historical and scholarly context of Ginzberg’s milestone work as well as the methodological and theoretical issues that emerge from studying it and other forms of aggadic literature. Scholars of Jewish folklore as well as of Talmudic-Midrashic literature will find this volume to be invaluable reading.Contributors Include: David Golinkin, Daniel Boyarin, Hillel I. Newman, Jacob Elbaum, Galit Hasan-Rokem, Johannes Sabel, Ithamar Gruenwald, Rebecca Schorsch.

Seit dem 7. Oktober 2023 ist nichts mehr, wie es war. Das Massaker an den Besucher:innen eines Musikfestivals, die darauffolgenden Kriegsereignisse, die Angst, die Trauer und das Verstummen – all das hallt in den Gedichten dieser Anthologie nach.Sprache ist mein Schutzraum versammelt hebräisch schreibende Dichter:innen, die versuchen, Worte für das Unfassbare zu finden. Die Gedichte reflektieren Schmerz, Verlust, Mitgefühl, Empathie und die Suche nach Orientierung in einer Zeit, in der Gewalt und Trauer den Alltag durchdringen. Sie sind Zeugnisse von Verletzlichkeit, Widerstandskraft und der unerschütterlichen Kraft der Sprache, die das Unsagbare in Bilder, Rhythmen und Metaphern verwandelt.Die Texte in dieser zweisprachigen Ausgabe – Deutsch und Hebräisch, herausgegeben und übersetzt von Udi Levy – eröffnen einen Raum, in dem poetische Reflexion auf kollektives und individuelles Trauma trifft, ohne einfache Antworten zu geben, aber das Menschliche in all seiner Komplexität sichtbar macht.Mit Texten von: Agi Mishol, Nathan Wassermann, Maya Weinberg, David Grossman, Ariel Zinder, Galit Hasan-Rokem, Gilad Meiri, Roni Eldad, Aharon Shabtai, Gili Haimovich, Gad Kaynar Kissinger, Liat Kaplan, Shimon Levy, Shlomo Efrati, Nurit Zarchi, Amos Noy, Roni Pinkerfeld, Ilan Sheinfeld, Yael Statman, Ronny Someck, Tal Nitzán, Bacol Serlui, Admiel Kosman, Odeya Rosenak, Anton Shamas und Jacob Raz.
