Although Quentin Tarantino has cherished Enzo G. Castellari’s 1978 “macaroni” war flick The Inglorious Bastards for most of his film-geek life, his own Inglourious Basterds is no remake. Instead, as hinted by the Tarantino-esque misspelling, this is a lunatic fantasia of WWII, a brazen re-imagining of both history and the behind-enemy-lines war film subgenre. There’s a Dirty Not-Quite-Dozen of mos…

Excerpt: Isaak Emmanuilovich Babel (Russian: , 13 July 1894 January 27, 1940) was a Soviet journalist, playwright, and short story writer acclaimed as “the greatest prose writer of Russian Jewry.” Despite being an enthusiastic Communist, Isaac Babel was arrested, tortured and shot during Joseph Stalin’s Great Purge. Isaak Babel was born into a family of Manus and Feyga Bobel (Babel changed the spelling of his surname in his twenties). Manus Bobel was a Jewish shopkeeper in Odessa during a period of intermittent pogroms and mass exodus of Jews from the Russian Empire. Isaak Babel’s family survived Odessa’s 1905 pogrom with the help of Christian neighbors, but his great maternal grandfather Shoyl was one of about 300 Jews murdered. In his teens, Babel hoped to get into the preparatory class of the Nicolas I Odessa Commercial School. However, he first had to overcome the Jewish quota (10% within the Pale of Settlement, 5% outside and 3% for both capitals). Despite the fact that Babel received the passing grades, his place was given to another boy, whose parents had bribed the school officials. As a result he was schooled at home by private tutors. In addition to regular school subjects, Babel also studied the Talmud and music. According to Cynthia Ozick, “Though he was at home in Yiddish and Hebrew, and was familiar with the traditional texts and their demanding commentaries, he added to these a lifelong fascination with Maupassant and Flaubert. His first stories were composed in fluent literary French. The breadth and scope of his social compass enabled him to see through the eyes of peasants, soldiers, priests, rabbis, children, artists, actors, women of all classes. He befriended whores, cabdrivers, jockeys; he knew what it was like to be penniless, t… More:

Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Jews for Jesus is a Christian evangelistic organization that focuses specifically on the conversion of Jews to Christianity. Its members consider themselves to be Jewseither as defined by Jewish law, or according to Jews for Jesus”living out their Jewishness.” Jews for Jesus defines “Jewish” in terms of parentage and as a birthright, regardless of religious belief. The identification of Jews for Jesus as a Jewish organization is overwhelmingly rejected by Jewish religious denominations and secular Jewish groups due to the Christian beliefs of its members. The group’s evangelical activities are opposed also by some Christian organizations and scholars. Jews for Jesus is based in San Francisco, California. Jews for Jesus official mission statement is “to make the Messiahship of Jesus an unavoidable issue to our Jewish people worldwide.” They say that belief in Jesus as Messiah is a fulfillment of the prophecies of Hebrew scripture. Through media advertisements, production and distribution of literature, producing music and organizing person-to-person evangelism, the organization asserts that “a specifically Jewish mission” is necessary, saying “Jewish people tend to dismiss evangelistic methods and materials that are couched in Christian lingo, because they reinforce the assumption that Jesus is for ‘them’ not ‘us.’” Jews for Jesus promotes awareness of the Jewish heritage of the Christian faith. Their website contains brief descriptions of Jewish festivals, and also runs programs explaining the significance of Passover, Sukkot and Hanukkah, explaining what they consider messianic elements and how they believe these festivals are related to Jesus.

 Medieval Scholarship


Medieval Scholarship


$150


This is the third of a three-volume set on medieval scholarship that presents original biographical essays on scholars whose work has shaped medieval studies for the past four hundred years.A companion to Volume 1: History and Volume 2: Literature and Philology, Volume 3: Philosophy and the Arts covers the lives of twenty eminent individuals-from Victor Cousin (1792-1867) to Georges Chehata Anawati (1905-1994) in Philosophy; from H.J.W. Tillyard (1881-1968) to Gustave Reese (1899-1977) in Music; and from Alois Riegl (1858-1905) to Louis Grodecki (1910-1982) in Art History-whose subjects were the art, music, and philosophical thought of Europe between 500-1500. The scholars of medieval philosophy strove to identify the nexus of philosophical truth, whether they were engaged in the clash of the Christian church and secular republicanism as reflected in the tension between theology and philosophy, in addressing the conflicting perceptions of Muslim identity, or in defining Jewish philosophical theology in non-Jewish culture. Medieval musicologists, who are included as the subjects of the essays, pioneered or recontextualized traditional views on the definition of music as subject matter, on the relationship between music and philosophical concepts, on interpretative distinctions between secular and sacred music, monophony and polyphony, and concepts of form and compositional style. The art historians treated in this volume not only overturn the view of medieval art as an aesthetic decline from classical art, but they demonstrate the continual development of form and style inclusive of minor and major arts, in textiles, architecture and architectural sculpture, manuscripts, ivory carvings, and stained glass.The philosophers, musicologists, and art historians who appear in Volume 3 worked in three newly-emerging disciplines largely of nineteenth-century origin. In their distinguished and extraordinary output of energy in scholarly and academic arenas, they co

V.)…” my rest” reference to (a) rest from travel on entering Canaan, and (b) to a Sabbath of rest for the people of God in heaven (Heb. v. 4). This, originally a Jewish hymn, has appended to it the Christian Doxology, and is thus adopted by the Christian Church as her own, to be used each day as the rubric directs, except on 1gth day of the month, when it forms part of the regular Psalms, and on Easter Day, when another special anthem is appointed, composed from 1 Cor. v. 7, 8 ; Rom. vi. 9-n ; 1 Cor. xv. 20-22 ; and printed before the Collect for Easter Day. CHAPTER IV. THE PSALMS. Historical. — That many of the Psalms were composed for public worship, and were sung in the Temple Service, and accompanied by music, is very evident, not only from the directions to the ” Chief Musician, ” which is prefixed to at least 55 of them, but also from many passages in other books of Scripture, e. g., 2 Chr. v. 13, xxix. 27-30 ; Ezra Hi. n; Neh. xii. 46, 47, etc. We know also, in the time of our Lord, that the Psalms formed a considerable portion of the ritual of the Jewish worship, and that the people were thus very familiar with them ; hence we can readily understand how they at once, as expressions of devotion, obtained a position in the public service of the Christian Church, which they still retain (1 Cor. xiv. 26 ; Eph. v. 19 ; Col. iii. 16). Indeed, so often were they used in the Apostolic Church, that, we are told, the poorest Christian could say them by heart, and sing them as he laboured in the field. St. Basil, who was born about 330, and

Excerpt: The Stronger (1952)Six Characters in Search of an Author (1959)Nine Rivers from Jordan (1968)Will You Marry Me? (1989) Esther (1993) Esther is an American opera in 3 acts composed by Hugo Weisgall, with a libretto by Charles Kondek. Esther was premiered by the New York City Opera in October 1993. The opera is about Esthers struggle as she becomes the queen of Persia, and her heroic act of triumphing over the evil Prime Minister Haman and his plot of exterminating the Jews. Esther was a Jewish queen of the Persian Empire, the wife of Ahasuerus (also known as Xerxes I). Today, her story is best known through its telling in Jewish Scriptures and the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. As a result of Esther’s intervention and influence, Mizrahi Jews lived in the Persian Empire for 2400 years thereafter. Jews established an annual feast, the feast of Purim, in memory of their deliverance. Weisgall is one of few composers to use the character Esther as a subject, including Palestrina, Handel, and Milhaud. Esther was Weisgalls 10th and last opera. It was considered one of his most successful works, along with Six Characters in Search of an Author, which confirmed his reputation as a major 20th century American composer. Despite the background and sources of the subject, Weisgall composed Esther with no discernible attempt to adapt Persian music or style in his opera. The opera remained post-modernist, with strong Second Viennese School influence, although not entirely atonal. Weisgall descended from four generations of cantors, including his father, and as a result, absorbed from an early age the musical traditions of the Jews of central Europe as well as the standard opera and song repertory, which influenced the writing for Es… More:

People of the City: Jews and the Urban Challenge


$7.95


The Jews have been an urban people par excellence, and their influence on the urban landscape is unmistakable. Who can imagine modern Vienna, Berlin, Warsaw, or New York, to name just a few examples, without their large, vibrant, and creative Jewish populations? Conversely, the urban experience has been a decisive factor in modern Jewish history. This new volume in the acclaimed Studies in Contemporary Jewry series is devoted to the theme of Jews and the modern city. It features essays on Orthodox Jewry in the city, Jewish-Christian relations, klezmer music, the impact of urbanization on German Jewry, the Jewish communities in New York and St. Petersburg, and the emergence of the first "Hebrew City" (Tel-Aviv). It also includes a discussion of the new prayer book of the Conservative movement in Israel. Like others in the series, this book presents current scholarship in the form of a symposium, essays, and book reviews by distinguished experts in Jewish studies from around the world. Published annually by the Avraham Harman Institute of Contemporary Jewry at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Studies in Contemporary Jewry continues to be an invaluable resource for scholars of modern history and culture.

Excerpt: Aristotle (Greek: , Aristotéls) (384 BC 322 BC) was a Greek philosopher, a student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great. His writings cover many subjects, including physics, metaphysics, poetry, theater, music, logic, rhetoric, politics, government, ethics, biology, and zoology. Together with Plato and Socrates (Plato’s teacher), Aristotle is one of the most important founding figures in Western philosophy. Aristotle’s writings constitute a first at creating a comprehensive system of Western philosophy, encompassing morality and aesthetics, logic and science, politics and metaphysics. Aristotle’s views on the physical sciences profoundly shaped medieval scholarship, and their influence extended well into the Renaissance, although they were ultimately replaced by Newtonian physics. In the biological sciences, some of his observations were confirmed to be accurate only in the nineteenth century. His works contain the earliest known formal study of logic, which was incorporated in the late nineteenth century into modern formal logic. In metaphysics, Aristotelianism had a profound influence on philosophical and theological thinking in the Islamic and Jewish traditions in the Middle Ages, and it continues to influence Christian theology, especially Eastern Orthodox theology, and the scholastic tradition of the Catholic Church. His ethics, though always influential, gained renewed interest with the modern advent of virtue ethics. All aspects of Aristotle’s philosophy continue to be the object of active academic study today. Though Aristotle wrote many elegant treatises and dialogues (Cicero described his literary style as “a river of gold”), it is thought that the majority of his writings are now lost and only about one-third of the original wo… More:
