Abstract:
The increasing visibility of a number of previously marginalized literary cultures is one of the most challenging developments in post-war American fiction. My dissertation deals with the novels of Bernard Malamud (1914–1986), a contemporary Jewish-American author, whose work is linked with this phenomenon as well as other significant trends in the recent literature of the United States. It is customary to think that ethnic authors write within the older realist or naturalist traditions. The new scholarship, however, claims that literary forms are not organically connected with ethnic groups.

Abstract:
B’nai B’rith is the oldest international Jewish organization. In contrast to most other Jewish organizations, BB has no hierarchy, nor is it an umbrella organization. It is totally democratic, it is still the only major Jewish organization, in which every individual member has the right to vote. From the beginning, BB was an order for Jewish men. The main purpose of BB has been to serve the Jewish people. BB was founded in United States, but rapidly expanded to Europe. In order to fulfil this great mission, different agencies have been established in the course of time.

Abstract:
In this no-holds-barred essay, former New York Times Middle East correspondent and Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Chris Hedges examines how the United States’ staunch support provides Israel with impunity to visit mayhem on a population which it subjugates and holds captive. Notwithstanding occasional and momentary criticism, the official U.S. cheerleading stance is not only an embarrassing spectacle, Hedges argues, it is also a violation of international law, and an illustration of the disfiguring and poisonous effect of the psychosis of permanent war characteristic of both countries.

Abstract:
This article examines the use of central elements of the Jewish religious repertoire and transcendental realm, such as prophecy or revelation, within the aesthetic secular realm of musical avant-garde and modern Hebrew literature. By focusing on two case studies, I attempt to shed new light on the question of Jewish secular culture. Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951), an Austrian Jewish composer, was born into an assimilated Viennese family and converted to Protestantism before returning to Judaism in the 1930s while escaping to the United States.

Abstract:
The essay explores the rising popularity of feminist dystopian fiction in literary studies, focusing on Leni Zumas' novel Red Clocks. It investigates how political anxieties are depicted through the interior monologues of four main female characters, highlighting the colonization of the female body as they grapple with unwanted pregnancies and resort to illegal means for abortions. The study suggests that feminist dystopian fiction, exemplified by Red Clocks, can be prophetic, anticipating issues such as abortion rights restrictions in the United States.

Abstract:
A large literature on feminist theology and philosophy of religion has explored the various ways in which feminism has reshaped religious thought and practice within different faith traditions. This study uses Festinger’s (1965) cognitive dissonance theory and the 2017 Nishma Research Survey of American Modern Orthodox Jews to examine the effect of tension between feminism and Orthodox Judaism on lay men and women. For 14% of Modern Orthodox Jews, issues related to women or women’s roles are what cause them “the most pain or unhappiness” as Orthodox Jews. The paper examines the sociodemographi

It is the artistic embodiment of the personal Jewish experience and identity in the works of literature, the view “from inside,” the perspective of collective memory and the connection to history and culture.

Abstract Before 1991, approximately 60,000 Central Asian Jews lived in Uzbekistan. When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, their centurieslong history in the region underwent dramatic changes. The lifting of emigration restrictions coupled with fear of economic chaos, political instability, growth of national movements and a rise in antisemitism, provoked massive Jewish emigration. Today, only about 4,000 Central Asian Jews remain in Uzbekistan. The others have emigrated primarily to the United States, Israel and Austria.

In 1903, Otto Weininger, twenty-three, Viennese, Jewish, and an imminent suicide, published his misogynist manifesto Sex and Character and created an international sensation. ‘One began’, reported a contemporary, ‘to hear in the men's clubs of England and in the cafés of France and Germany – one began to hear singular mutterings among men. Even in the United States where men never talk about women, certain whispers might be heard. The idea was that a new gospel had appeared.’ Weininger's new gospel tied the spiritual progress of the human race to the repudiation of its female half. Women, said

Abstract Thomas Mann (1875-1955), one of Germany’s finest novelists, ranks securely among the giants of twentieth-century literature. However, Mann’s significance extends much beyond his fiction. As an intellectual whose career traversed seven fateful decades of German history and culminated in American and Swiss exile during a cataclysmic war and its controversy-filled aftermath, Mann, unlike such men as Rainer Maria Rilke or Hermann Hesse, never chose to stand aloof from the hurly-burly of his time. On the contrary, Mann’s intimate engagement with his socio-political environment—from Wilhelm

Abstract In a transformative phase during the middle decades of the nineteenth century the railroad business in Central and Eastern Europe attracted several Jewish investors and entrepreneurs. These mobility entrepreneurs made a substantial impact on mass mobility in and far beyond Eastern Europe. In the 1880s and 1890s Albert Ballin, the son of a Jewish ticket broker from Denmark, turned the Hamburg America Line into the largest steamship line in the world. German steamship lines dominated the transatlantic passenger market in Eastern Europe. The mobility revolution displaced many Jews from e

Abstract From its beginnings, modern Jewish scholarship has been driven by the methodologies prevailing in the secular academy, even as its content has been dominated by issues of particular Jewish concern. Like their colleagues, Jewish historians in the nineteenth century were usually positivists, focusing on the great men who shaped political events and intellectual developments. Because Jews lacked a conventional political history while at the same time possessing a rich textual legacy, Jewish historians, perhaps even more than their gentile counterparts, devoted themselves to intellectual

While Jews in Europe had long been associated with movement and alterity, most famously in the image of the Wandering Jew, in reality Jewish movement was heavily determined by state controls.
