Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, Vielleicht haben Sie schon davon gehört: Am 4. März haben wir offiziell den Start von De Gruyter Brill bekannt gegeben, und wir freuen uns, dass unser Jewish Studies-Programm in Zukunft noch vielfältiger und inspirierender wird. Da wir erst am Anfang dieses Prozesses stehen, enthält dieser Katalog aber zunächst weiterhin die Neuerscheinungen, die unter dem Dach von De Gruyter veröffentlicht werden. Frischen Wind für die Jüdischen Studien versprechen in unserem aktuellen Programm Dani Kranz und Sarah Roß mit ihrer neuen Reihe Jüdische Gegenwart – Beiträge zu jüdischen Lebenswelten in Deutschland und Europa. Dezidiert jüdische Perspektiven werden hier im Zentrum stehen, und wir freuen uns auf die ersten Bände)! Neues beginnt, und gleichzeitig möchten wir in diesem Jahr in besonderer Weise unser Augenmerk auf zwei unserer seit Jahrzehnten bestehenden und mittlerweile zum Goldstandard etablierten Reihen blicken: Die Conditio Judaica feiert im Sommer 2024 das Erscheinen des 100. Bandes und die Studia Judaica, mit ihren Unterreihen Studia Samaritana und Rethinking Diaspora, hat bereits Band 125 veröffentlicht (Seiten 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17). Auch im digitalen Bereich gibt es Neues zu entdecken: Die von Michael Grüttner zusammengestellte Datenbank Vertreibungen aus den deutschen Universitäten im Nationalsozialismus bietet biographische Informationen zu 1.300 vertriebenen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aller deutschen Universitäten, die 1933 bestanden (Seiten 38, 41).

Wir wünschen unseren Leserinnen und Lesern spannende Entdeckungen und eine angeregte Lektüre!

Dear Readers, You have probably already heard the news: on 4 March we officially announced the launch of De Gruyter Brill and we are delighted that our range of Jewish Studies will be even more diverse and inspiring in the future. As we are still at the beginning of this process, this catalogue only contains the new publications that will appear under the De Gruyter umbrella. Fresh and distinctly Jewish perspectives are at the centre of the new series Contemporary Jewish Life – Beiträge zu jüdischen Lebenswelten in Deutschland und Europa, edited by Dani Kranz and Sarah Roß. We are looking forward to the first volumes! A lot is new, but we cherish also our long-standing and renowned series: Conditio Judaica is celebrating the publication of its 100th volume in summer 2024, and Studia Judaica with its sub-series Studia Samaritana and Rethinking Diaspora has already published its 125th volume (pp. 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17). There are also new discoveries in the digital field: The database Vertreibungen aus den deutschen Universitäten im Nationalsozialismus (Expulsions from German universities during National Socialism) compiled by Michael Grüttner offers biographical information on 1,300 expelled academics from all German universities that existed in 1933 (pp. 38, 41). We wish our readers exciting discoveries and stimulating reading!

In these conversations on Canaanite and biblical themes, six scholars debate the implications of key passages (Genesis 1; Habbakuk 3; and 2 Kings 22–23) for understanding ancient concepts of creation, chaos, monotheism and Yahwism itself. This book reveals methods and processes of scholarly enquiry and the issues underlying current disagreements, while advancing research in the relation between the Hebrew Bible and Canaanite religion.

The force and authority of divine law in the Hebrew Bible, with its demand for perfect justice and unfailing obedience, presents a striking contrast with the evidence of personal data preserved in archival and epigraphic sources. This volume explores these intriguing differentials in Neo-Babylonian, Persian, and Graeco-Roman records, as they inform the historical context from which early Christianity and rabbinic Judaism developed in antiquity.

This book is dedicated to the study of the touchpoints between Yahwistic communities throughout the Achaemenid empire and the Iranian attributes of the empire that ruled over them for about two centuries. Its approach is fundamentally interdisciplinary. It brings together scholars of Achaemenid history, literature and religion, Iranian linguistics, historians of the Ancient Near East, archeologists, biblical scholars and Semiticists.

An examination of MT Esther’s relationship to the Joseph story, this study employs an intertextual approach to demonstrate the authorial intent, historical development, and theological purpose of Esther’s interactions with Genesis 37-50. While this work is firmly rooted in the intertextual field, it also contributes to Scroll criticism by demonstrating how Esther’s allusions to Joseph articulate the disputed religious stance of the book.

Die Studie rekonstruiert die Genese der Tempelweiherzählung, um ihr historisch auf die Spur zu kommen. Dafür müssen in Teil I Lücken in der textkritischen Grundlagenforschung geschlossen werden (vor allem LXX). Auf dieser Grundlage wird in Teil II nach der Literargeschichte gefragt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die historischen Ursprünge der Erzählung nicht in der Königszeit, sondern in der Zeit des Zweiten Tempels liegen.

This study reconstructs the genesis of the story of the temple dedication to trace its historical development. To do so, Part I closes gaps in the basic text-critical research (especially LXX). This is the foundation on which Part II investigates its literary history. The findings show that the historical origins of the story lie not to the age of kings but in the age of the Second Temple.

Dieser Band eröffnet Perspektiven für die Weiterentwicklung atl. Exegese in ihrer methodischen Vielfalt: Er begründet, wie sie radikaler historisch und damit radikaler kanonisch werden muss und zeigt vielfältige Bedeutungen von Mythos, Geschichte und Vernunft für das atl. Schrifttum. Beispiele zu methodischer Hybridität und zu Exegese als durchsichtigem und offenem Spiel flankieren den abschließenden Entwurf einer hermeneutischen Praxistheorie.

This volume opens up new perspectives on the developing methodological diversity of Old Testament exegesis. It sets out how it must become radically historical and therefore radically canonical, while revealing the wide-ranging significance of myth, history, and reason in Old Testament writing. Examples of methodological hybridity and exegesis as a transparent, open game flank the concluding sketch of a hermeneutical theory of practice.

This book documents the collection of papers that were presented at an international and interreligious conference at Greifswald to celebrate the Gustaf Dalman Institute’s 100 anniversary. While, and precisely because, the cultural and religious heritage of the Southern Levant can no longer be researched as it was in the institute’s early days, this centenary offers a welcome opportunity to acknowledge Dalman’s groundbreaking studies.

In textgeschichtlichen und literaturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen stellt die vorliegende Arbeit anhand des Bundesbuches dar, wie Recht und Erzählung im Pentateuch verflochten sind und sich wechselseitig mit Sinn anreichern. Dabei wird für einzelne Textzeugen gezeigt, wie die Begründungszusammenhänge des Rechts in den Horizonten unterschiedlicher Konzeptionen von Tora zugespitzt werden.

In this insightful study, the dynamics of Judah’s perceived inferiority and desire come to the forefront. The work observes how Judah’s aspiration led them to merge their Abraham narrative with North Israel’s Jacob narrative, a pivotal reorientation of Israel’s past. Drawing parallels with ancient East Asian dynamics, this book offers a unique perspective on Judah’s identity politics and the complex tapestry of Israel’s ancestral past.

Joseph and Aseneth is increasingly used as a source for Judaism and Christianity at the turn of the Common Era. This study moves away from edited versions and returns to the sources to consider how redaction and translation affected its interpretation. Important contributions include the first synoptic edition of the Greek texts, analysis of the Syriac and Armenian translations, and an investigation of four abridged versions of the work.

The very broad spectrum of current Samaritan scholarship, into which this volume offers insight, spans the history of the Samaritan community, the text of the Samaritan Pentateuch and its Hebrew, Aramaic and Arabic commentaries, linguistic, text-critical and manuscript-editing issues. The papers were presented at the 10th International Conference of the Société d’Études Samaritaines 2022 in Budapest by 20 leading scholars and young researchers.

Hasidic groups have many customs. While Halakha denotes the “bar of holiness” for ordinary Jews, these customs represent the higher threshold expected of Hasidim, meant to justify their title as hasidim (“pious”).

This book analyzes how 19th-century hasidic authors perceived the new norms of their movement. As a test case, it examines a particularly restrictive hasidic norm enacted in the 20th century, sexual abstinence among married men.

This book follows the origins of the Kedushta, a sequence of poems that leads up to the epitome of Jewish prayer, the Kedusha or Sanctus. It tracks back the earliest forms of prayer in late antiquity and by doing so defines the main characteristics of this genre, both from the standpoint of Rhetoric and poetics. This genre draws from Midrash and Mysticism- adjacent literary forms that influence liturgical poetry.

Der Jalkut Schimoni ist ein Sammelwerk rabbinischer Auslegungen zur gesamten Hebräischen Bibel. Unerforscht ist, nach welchen Kriterien die Auslegungen ausgewählt wurden und ob das Werk als umfassendes Nachschlagewerk für exegetische Fragen, zur Verbindung von Bibelauslegung in Talmud und Midrasch oder zur Reform der rabbinischen Auslegungstradition konzipiert wurde. Die Übersetzung des Werkes ist ein erster Schritt, diese Fragen zu beantworten.

The Yalkut Schimoni compiles Rabbinical interpretations of the Hebrew Bible. The criteria used to select them are still unclear, nor do we know if the volume was conceptualized to act as a comprehensive reference work for exegetical issues, to connect biblical interpretations in the Talmud and Midrash, or to reform the rabbinical interpretative tradition. The translation of this volume is a first step toward answering these questions.

Scholem verbindet philosophische Fragen mit Diskussionen über die hebräischen Schriften und Sprache. Das Buch konfrontiert seine Thesen mit biblischen Texten und traditionellen Kommentaren und bietet so eine inklusive und aktuelle Leseart.

This volume scrutinizes afresh the traditional notion of inspiration. What does it mean to speak of an inspired text when the manuscript evidence reveals that it is fluid? Is there “theology” in the canonical text, in spite of its inner plurality? Should reception be regarded as an integral part of revelation and/or of the inspiration process? Such questions are raised in relation to Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Inspiration; Theology; Revelation; Reception

A phenomenology of oaths and vows across religious traditions. Exploring legal, liturgical, ritual and literary works from different eras, it provides a new understanding of the inherently creative force of oaths and vows. Viewing them as deeply generative, it further explores the tension between erotic desire and the taking of oaths in select works of Western and Eastern European literature from the 12th to the 19th centuries.

Sin is a central concept in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Yet it seems hardly comprehensible to secular people. Even within theology, the meaning of sin is often disputed. Where does sin come from? Is man radically corrupted by sin? How does sin relate to man’s redemption, toward which all three religions aim? The book analyzes what is understood by sin in each of the three monotheistic religions and points out commonalities and differences.

This volume is unprecedented in bringing together Jewish, Christian and Muslim perspectives on the grammar of the word ‘God’. It thus unveils fresh horizons for a deeper comprehension of its meaning, illuminating the intersections and disparities among these traditions in this regard.

Jonathan Adams (University of Gothenburg) introduces the background to Löwe’s “mirror” and presents the original Swedish text alongside an annotated English translation. It shows how Christian ethnographical writing about Jewish ceremonies arrived in Sweden long before Judereglementet of 1782.

The experience of birth has functioned through the ages as a vital metaphor foundational to all fields of art, philosophy, religion and literature. This book highlights the significance of birth in Jewish culture, as a challenge to existential philosophy and the centrality of death in Western culture. Similarities between Kabbalistic and midrashic perceptions of birth and its current place in cultural and psychoanalytic discourse are discussed.

The book offers a Jewish reading of Franz Kafka. Although among the various interpretations of Kafka, there is no shortage of readings that consider Kafka’s Judaism as a key lens through which to understand his work, the author attempts something different: not only to recognize in Kafka’s work themes, questions, or problems that are distinctly Jewish but also to propose, in its very approach, a distinct Jewish reading.

Even after the Shoah, Yiddish cultures spanned continents as interconnected communities. They were now marked, however, by the bloc borders of the Cold War. Between 1941 and 1991, Yiddish cultural activists in Eastern Europe worked towards realizing visions of socialist Yiddishlands. The volume illustrates locally-rooted, trans-socialist, and cross-bloc alliances in Poland, Romania, the GDR, and the Soviet Union.

Im Zentrum der Werke Stefan Zweigs und Franz Werfels stehen vielfach jene Katastrophen, die in den Schrecken der beiden Weltkriege kulminierten und von denen sie selbst ergriffen wurden. Um ihre Zeit zu deuten, richteten die beiden österreichischjüdischen Literaten den Blick auf den Propheten Jeremia. Der spezifisch biblische Bezug wurde nicht nur zu Literatur, aus ihm erschließt sich zudem eine neue Profilierung beider Schriftsteller.

The works of Stefan Zweig and Franz Werfel focus on the catastrophes that culminated in the horrors of the two world wars, which affected the authors themselves. In order to make sense of their times, these two Austrian-Jewish literary figures directed their attention toward the prophet Jeremiah. This specific Biblical reference did not just become literature – it also allows us to paint a new profile of each of these writers.

Stéphane Mosès explores in Displacements the poetry of Paul Celan and the work of major German-Jewish thinkers in the context of his distinction between normative and critical modernity. The volume contains translations of his books Approches de Paul Celan, Figures philosophiques de la modernité juive, and, alongside Freud, essays on Goethe and Büchner that pursue his engagement with tradition and its fragmentation also beyond the Jewish sphere.

The book provides new perspectives on the historical context surrounding Kraus’ writing during the Third Reich as well as an analysis of the Third Walpurgnis Night. The contributions place Kraus’s work in dialogue with a broader spectrum of critical voices, including Adorno, Klemperer and Arendt. Revisiting Kraus from these new perspectives contributes to a better understanding of this major intellectual of the first half of the 20th century.

Werke, die im 20. Jahrhundert wesentlich zur Entwicklung der Geisteswissenschaften beigetragen haben, sind vor dem Horizont einer jüdisch geprägten Wissenskultur und Erfahrungsgeschichte entstanden. Der Band möchte diese Entwicklung dokumentieren, dabei aber keine schlichte Gleichung von Herkunft, Zugehörigkeit und Denkstil unternehmen, sondern einer Textgelehrsamkeit nachgehen, die neue Zugänge zur Literatur und zur Literaturwissenschaft formte.

Works that had a considerable impact on the development of the humanities in the twentieth century emerged against the backdrop of a culture of knowledge and an epistemological history shaped by Judaism.

This book investigates, for the first time, the multilingual resources contemporary Jewish speakers in Berlin use when speaking German. The focus of this explorative study is on lexical variation and its social meaning from the speakers’ perspective. Through an innovative method, it is shown how shared language ideologies towards Hebrew and Yiddish, but also the individual positioning, shape speakers’ perception of linguistic choices.

“This is a very timely book…which moves us away from the polarizing binary and opens up a surprising diversity of thought and reflections. It is certainly a shift away from the drums-of-war kind of approach that has dominated popular and academic discussion thus far.”

Oded Haklai, Director of the Centre for the Study of Democracy and Diversity at Queen’s University.

“[This] book illuminates the possibility of holding complex thoughts amid sloganeering and zero-sum accounts of history, grief, ethical outrage, and visions of the future.”

Atalia Omer, Professor of Religion, Conflict, and Peace Studies, University of Notre Dame.

“Since the nightmare that began on October 7, one of few things that has given me hope are those voices from Israel—few though they are—who hold the agony of that day and yet resist a war that only brings more death, rage and despair. I’m so grateful to have their humanity and courage collected in one place.”

This volume explores a pervasive narrative in medieval literature and culture: the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, interpreted by Christians as divine vengeance for Jewish deicide. Vernacular iterations of Jerusalem’s fall were disseminated in medieval England through historiography, hagiography, romance, sermon, and drama. Mixed with biblical prophecy and tales of miracles, the legend was vital in the construction of medieval English identity.

These seven studies analyze interpretations of ancient Jewish history by prominent Jewish scholars in the German world in the 19th and 20th centuries. Although focusing on diverse figures and episodes, they all argue that these scholars’ views on the Jews’ responses to Hellenistic and Roman rule, while built upon the ancient sources, were nurtured by contemporary notions concerning the options available to Jews living in a non-Jewish world.

Wien wurde vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg zu einem Zentrum jüdischer Konvertiten aus dem In- und Ausland und die Schottenpfarre wurde in dieser Zeit zur bedeutendsten Konvertitenpfarre der katholischen Kirche. Hier konvertierten später prominente Vertreter aus Kunst, Kultur und Wissenschaft. Grundlage dieser Arbeit waren handschriftliche Quellen rund um die Taufe, welche in ihrer Zusammenführung überraschende Motive offenlegen, die zur Taufe führten. Konvertiten; Wien; Juden; 1868–1914

New York City, where many immigrants first arrived in the United States, was home to a large Jewish community, including many who subscribed to radical political views such as Anarchism, Communism, Socialism, and Unionism. In such political movements, Jewish individuals seemed to be dominant. This book addresses how, where, and why Jewish immigrants in the US were radicalized in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Während das Mäzenatentum in der Weimarer Republik aufgrund wirtschaftlicher Krisen notgedrungen immer weniger wurde, verfügte der kleine Marktflecken Murnau in Oberbayern über einen amerikanisch-jüdischen Stifter, der soziale und kulturelle Projekte großzügig förderte. Gleichzeitig entwickelte sich Murnau zur nationalsozialistischen „Hochburg des Oberlandes“. Das Buch blickt auf dieses spannungsreiche Verhältnis.

While the economic crisis forced patronage to decline during the Weimar Republic, the little market town of Murnau in Upper Bavaria was home to an American Jewish philanthropist who funded social and cultural projects generously. At the same time, Murnau developed into the National Socialist “stronghold of the highlands.” This book examines this gripping relationship. Jewish philanthropy; Weimar Republic; early NSDAP

Im zweiten Band zum jüdischen Frankfurt steht die NS- und Nachkriegszeit im Fokus. Nachdem auch hier die jüdischen Gemeinden zerstört und die Jüdinnen und Juden systematisch entrechtet, verfolgt und ermordet worden waren, gründete sich nach 1945 eine neue jüdische Gemeinde und es entwickelte sich neues jüdisches Leben. Später gingen von Frankfurt wichtige Impulse für eine neue Sichtbarkeit der jüdischen Gemeinschaft in Deutschland aus.

The second volume on Jewish Frankfurt focuses on National Socialism and the postwar period. After Jewish communities were dissolved during the Nazi period, a new Jewish community was founded in the postwar period under the protection of the US military administration. Later, Frankfurt provided impulses for the new visibility of the Jewish community in the Federal Republic.

Vom Makel des Kultes behaftet zu sein oder durch die Inkarnation von Ideen und des Transzendenten erst das Kunstwerke zu ermöglichen – in dieser Spannung geht bis heute der Streit um die Macht der Bilder. Bilder erzeugen den Schrecken, das Heilige und bannen beides zugleich. Von antiken und jüdischen Fundstellen handelnd sowie christliche, islamische und bürgerliche Bildbelege aufsuchend, wird der Bogen in die Gegenwart geschlagen.

Bilderstreit; Bilderverbot; Erinnerungskultur; Bildwissenschaft

To be tainted by the stain of cult, or to enable life and artworks in the first place through the incarnation of ideas and the transcendent –this is the tension encapsulated in debate on the power of images. Images create horror as well as the sacred, and may also banish both. Dealing with ancient and Jewish sites as well as seeking out Christian, Islamic and secular pictorial evidence, the exhibition builds a bridge to the present day.

What is the meaning of the Jewish rites of initiation known as “bar and bat mitzvah” in the modern age, at a time when so many other traditions have fallen by the wayside? These ceremonies have not only been preserved, but are celebrated by more Jewish families and demand greater financial, psychological, and family resources than ever before. The book maps and analyzes the transformation of the rituals and endeavors to understand their meanings.

The dominant Israeli “sabra” culture rejected the image and stereotpye of the weak exilic Jew, widespread around the globe for hundreds of years. However, Israeli culture was open in many ways to different cultural materials and new influences, which led to the rise of various Israeli youth cultures. The authors place Israeli ethnic youth cultures in their historical, cultural, and economic context while analyzing social and ethnic conflicts.

For a brief moment in the history of Acre under the British mandate, there was a Hebrew community, linking old and new settlements. It had a national-Zionist orientation and consisted of Jews of local and Mizrachi origin. Although this is a local story, it sheds light on the complexity and diversity of the Zionist enterprise when it comes to Arab or mixed settlements, and raises questions about the relationship between local and national history.

Zäh hält sich die Ansicht, die stereotypische Verknüpfung von Jüdinnen und Juden mit Gier, Reichtum und Wucher ginge auf ihre angebliche Rolle im vormodernen Geldhandel zurück. Diese Studie nimmt stattdessen christliche Vorstellungen von sündhafter Gier, jüdischem Materialismus und der Rolle des Judaslohns für den „Gottesmord“ in den Blick, die sich während der sozioökonomischen Umbrüche des Hochmittelalters zum Bild des „Geldjuden“ verdichteten. Mittelalter; Antisemitismus; christlicher Antijudaismus; Deutschland; Wucher

There is a dogged idea that the stereotypical association of Jews with greed, wealth, and usury has to do with their supposed role in the premodern money market. Instead, this study examines the Christian ideas of sinful greed, Jewish materialism, and the role of the traitor’s reward in the “murder of God,” which together condensed into the image of the “Geldjude” – “money Jew” – during the socioeconomic upheavals of the High Middle Ages.

Today, the political situation in the Middle East and the situation of Muslims as minorities in Europe constitute important backdrops to the relationship between Muslims and Jews. Based on data from qualitative individual interviews, this book explores narratives about Jews among Muslims in contemporary Norway.

The Therapized Antisemite determines the failure of psychology in the understanding and punishment of antisemitism. Through exploring social, clinical, and forensic psychology, as well as psychohistory and the intrusion of psychology into criminal law and policymaking, Christopher L. Schilling argues that we don’t yet understand what causes antisemitism in psychological terms, let alone how to go about solving the problem.

In 1941 most of Poland’s Jews were living in the General Government, the part of Nazioccupied Poland not annexed to the Reich. Atrocious conditions in forced labour camps and overcrowded ghettos caused mortality to escalate even before autumn 1941, when the territory became a central site of systematic killing. The volume documents the crimes of the German occupiers, Jewish resistance and the responses of the non-Jewish Poles to mass murder.

Arbeit Macht Frei focuses on the representations and interpretations of the infamous phrase in art. The expression is most associated with the National Socialists, who used it at the entrances to six of their concentration camps to misdirect with contempt and irony, and to instill false hope in the minds of prisoners. Batya Brutin discusses Holocaust survivor artists, their descendants as others who use the phrase in their artwork.

Dieses Buch untersucht die zwischen 1945 und 1989 mehrheitlich von Frauen verfassten deutschsprachigen Texte über das KZ Ravensbrück. Dabei zeigt es, wie sich ost- und westdeutsche Erzählmuster über weibliche KZ-Haft etabliert haben. Sina Meißgeier analysiert literarische Darstellungen politischer Gefangenschaft und zeigt, dass bereits zu DDR-Zeiten Texte existierten, die Brüche im tradierten Mythos des Antifaschismus aufweisen.

This book examines texts written about the Ravensbrück concentration camp between 1945 and 1989, predominantly by women, showing how East and West German narrative patterns about female concentration camp internment were established. Sina Meißgeier analyzes literary portrayals of political imprisonment, revealing that, even during the DDR, there were texts that demonstrated ruptures in the traditional antifascist myth.

The Cold War influenced how people, societies and states dealt with the Holocaust and its aftereffects. This book challenges previous perceptions that the democratic West embraced commemoration while the totalitarian East did not. Its contributions show how political interests shaped commemoration on both sides of the Iron Curtain and how individual actors carved out space to remember the Holocaust beyond the dominant narratives.

die brutale Exklusionspolitik des NS-Regimes und die dadurch ausgelösten internationalen Migrationsbewegungen gelten zu Recht als bedeutsame Zäsur in der Wissenschaftsgeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts: Die 1933 einsetzende „Säuberung“ der deutschen Universitäten in Deutschland führte zu einem beträchtlichen Verlust an wissenschaftlicher Substanz.

Die Datenbank bietet biographische Informationen zu 1.300 vertriebenen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aller deutschen Universitäten. Die Biogramme enthalten Details über Entlassungsgründe, Emigration und Remigration, über KZ-Haft und Suizide sowie über Opfer der NS-Vernichtungspolitik.

Das biographische Nachschlagewerk ergänzt das Biographisches Handbuch der deutschsprachigen Emigration nach 1933, das in der Datenbank Biographische Handbücher der deutschsprachigen Emigration nach 1933 enthalten ist.

A unique voice that reaches beyond politics and religion

Presents a photographic history of the Land of Israel as a shared place rather than as disputed territory

Photographs by Yaacov Ben Dov, Alfons Himmelreich, Hanna Safieh, Drora Spitz, Moi Ver among others

traditions, and customs manifest in this album, bring to life the history of photography of this land, which is one shared by the peoples that call it home. For the last section of the book, Silver-Brody invited sixty individuals—photographers, scholars, artists, curators, and collectors from different religious, cultural, and national backgrounds—to choose a single

photograph and to write a short essay relating to it. These texts together offer a fascinating narrative, thus adding significant historical relevance. .

Vivienne Silver-Brody, is a photo-historian, collector and curator
