Defining Judaism: A Reader de Aaron W. Hughes

Defining Judaism: A Reader: Critical Categories in the Study of Religion

Autor Aaron W. Hughes
en Limba Engleză Hardback – feb 2010
Judaism is a monotheistic religion with a history of over 3,500 years. 'Defining Judaism' illustrates the range of theoretical and practical issues required for comparative and historical study of the faith. The texts range from historical attempts to define individual 'Jews' to imagining Judaism as a religion like other religions, to modern and post-modern attempts to decentre these earlier definitions. The reader brings together a wide range of essays from influential scholars of ancient and contemporary Judaism to attempt a full picture of Judaism that will be of interest to all those involved in the study of religion.

Descriere

Illustrates the range of theoretical and practical issues involved in defining Judaism for the purposes of comparative and historical studies. This book is divided into four overlapping sections that deal, in various ways, with the configuration of 'Judaism' and how this configuration relates to other historical and/or disciplinary contexts.
