Описание: <p><em>A Well-Worn Tallis for a New Ceremony: Trends in Israeli Haredi Culture</em> is a study of contemporary ultra-Orthodox religiosity in Israel. This book analyses the on-going reconstruction of Haredi culture in Israel, a process which has been spurred on by the challenges of modernity, the worldwide resurgence of religion, and the strong sway of Israeliness. Despite its founders’ and the present leadership’s long-standing efforts to establish and buttress an community enclave, various modern trends and state institutions, such as secularisation, consumerism, feminism, and the military, are having a profound impact on the yeshiva world. In other words, modernity is making inroads into the Jewish state’s Haredi ‘ghetto’ and transforming many aspects of everyday life. Over the course of her extended research on this community, Stadler has discerned changes in several key areas: religious life; the family structure; and the community’s interface with government authorities and the rest of the populace. Her book sheds light on all these developments. </p>

Описание: Israel’s 1977 political election resulted in a dramatic defeat for the ruling Labor movement, which had enjoyed more than four decades of economic, political, and cultural dominance. The government passed into the hands of the rightwing nationalist movement, marking a tumultuous episode in the history of both Israel and Jewish people at the start of the twenty-first century. Elmaliach chronicles the fascinating story of Israel’s political transformation between the 1950s and the 1970s, exploring the roots of the Labor movement’s historic collapse.Elmaliach focuses on Mapam and its allied Kibbutz movement, Hakibbutz Ha’artzi, a segment of the Israeli Labor movement that was most committed to the synthesis of socialism and Zionism. Although Mapam and Hakibbutz Ha’artzi were not the largest factions in the Israeli Labor movement, their ability to combine an economic organization, a political party, and cultural institutions gave them a strong foundation on which to build their power. Conversely, the Labor movement’s crisis was, in large part, due to the economic upward mobility of the middle class, the emergence of new political orientations among supporters of the working-class parties, and the rise of cultural protests, which opposed the traditional workers’ parties. Offering an innovative analysis, Elmaliach argues that, ultimately, the sources of the Labor movement’s strength were also the causes of its weakness.

Автор: Yohai Hakak Название: Young Men in Israeli Haredi Yeshiva Education: The Scholars` Enclave in Unrest ISBN: 9004234691 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004234697 Издательство: Brill Цена: 150090.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: By looking at the case of Lithuanian yeshivas in Israel, Yohai Hakak’s book explores the internal tensions and dynamics of religious orders during a stage of a relative ‘loss of charisma’, in which the enthusiasm of the founding generation has diminished. It is the first study to include participant observations conducted within these institutions, which are the sacred heart of this segregated and highly religious community. The book highlights the current crisis these fundamentalist institutions are going through marked by a dramatic growth in yeshiva dropout rates. It examines the new and innovative ways the rabbis are trying to respond to the crisis. As part of these attempts the rabbinical discourse portrays a unique utopian and egalitarian world governed by supernatural forces and unlimited spiritual resources and incorporates Western psychological and democratic ideas.This book is also available in paperback."Hakak's book is a great scholarly achievement." Motti Inbari, University of North Carolina at Pembroke"In sum, the book manages to elaborate on important developments and changes in the Haredi world: The emergence of cautious deviance, questioning of old ideals, or the rise of individuality. At the same time Hakak explains how these changes inflict strains upon the social structure of the Haredi world. The book can be therefore recommended particularly to scholars dealing with the development within the Haredi society." Peter Lintl, Institut ur Politische Wissenschaft, Friedrich-Alexander-Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg
As part of its effort to forge a new secular Jewish nation, the nascent Israeli state tried to limit Jewish religiosity. However, with the steady growth of the ultraorthodox community and the expansion of the settler community, Israeli society is becoming increasingly religious. Although the arrival of religious discourse in Israeli politics has long been noticed, its cultural development has rarely been addressed. Directed by God explores how the country’s popular media, principally film and television, reflect this transformation. In doing so, it examines the changing nature of Zionism and the place of Judaism within it.
Once the purview of secular culture, Israel’s media initially promoted alternatives to traditional religious expression; however, using films such as Kadosh, Waltz with Bashir, and Eyes Wide Open, Yaron Peleg shows how Israel’s contemporary film and television programs have been shaped by new religious trends and how secular Israeli culture has processed and reflected on its religious heritage. He investigates how shifting cinematic visions of Jewish masculinity and gender track transformations in the nation’s religious discourse. Moving beyond the secular/religious divide, Directed by God explores changing film and television representations of different Jewish religious groups, assessing what these representations may mean for the future of Israeli society.
