Showing results for "Arts" in Judaism

Renowned critic and translator Robert Alter’s The Art of Biblical Narrative has radically expanded our view of the Bible by recasting it as a work of literary art deserving studied criticism. In this seminal work, Alter describes how the Hebrew Bible’s many authors used innovative literary styles and devices such as parallelism, contrastive dialogue, and narrative tempo to tell one of the most revolutionary stories of all time: the revelation of a single God. In so doing, Alter shows, these writers reshaped not only history, but also the art of storytelling itself.

The Art of Inventing Hope offers an unprecedented, in-depth conversation between the world's most revered Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, and a son of survivors, Howard Reich. During the last four years of Wiesel's life, he met frequently with Reich in New York, Chicago, and Florida - and spoke often on the phone - to discuss the subject that linked them: both Wiesel and Reich's father, Robert Reich, were liberated from Buchenwald death camp on April 11, 1945. What started as an interview assignment from the Chicago Tribune evolved into a friendship and partnership.

Mea Schearim, die Stadt der 100 Tore, ist ein Viertel von Jerusalem, das fast ausschließlich von ultraorthodoxen Juden bewohnt wird. Um diese unfassbar aufregende und fremde Welt und ihre Spiritualität erfassen und verständlich machen zu können, muss man dort gelebt haben – so wie Tuvia Tenenbom, der in Mea Schearim aufgewachsen ist und nach vielen Jahren in New York hierher zurückgekehrt ist, um sich seiner Vergangenheit zu stellen: Denn Tenenbom entstammt selber einer ultraorthodoxen Familie, lernte in einer Jeschiwa, und ihm wurde eine Zukunft als einer der ganz großen Rabbis prophezeit.

Born and raised in a tight-knit Orthodox Jewish family, Tova Mirvis committed herself to observing the rules and rituals prescribed by this way of life. After all, to observe was to be accepted and to be accepted was to be loved. She married a man from within the fold and quickly began a family. But over the years, her doubts became noisier than her faith, and at age 40 she could no longer breathe in what had become a suffocating existence.
