Abstract

"Une synthèse qui rénove la question juive, son histoire et ses enjeux. Au lieu de parler des juifs, mot dont il revisite divers aspects, l'auteur avance la notion de judéo-gentil qui permet de désamorcer toutes les oppositions binaires et réductrices dont se sont nourris l'antisémitisme comme le judéo-centrisme et le sionisme contemporain."

Abstract

A Well-Worn Tallis for a New Ceremony is a study of contemporary ultra-Orthodox religiosity in Israel. This book analyzes the ongoing 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 eff orts to establish and buttress a community enclave, various modern trends and state institutions, such as secularization, 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, including 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 of these developments.

Abstract

This book studies the unique demographic behavior of Jews in Bohemia (the historic part of the Czech Republic), starting from a moment in history when industrialization in Central Europe was still far away in the future, and when Jews were still living legally restricted lives in ghettos. Very early on, however, from the 18th century onwards, Jews developed patterns of decreasing mortality and fertility that was not observed among the gentile majority in Bohemia; patterns which established them as a demographic avant-garde population in all of Europe.
