8vo, br. ed. pp.159. EL retorno a Sefarad. Un siglo después de la Inquisición evoca las costumbres y el folclor popular de los sefarditas, los descendientes de los judíos expulsados de España. José Meir Estrugo revive el romancero popular, las canciones de cuna, la actividad de la prensa sefardí, el pujante comercio, las alcurnias judías de origen español, las consejas que oía a las judías ancianas en la judería de Esmirna y el habla de la calle. «Somos como discos fonográficos vivos para los estudiantes del español antiguo». Las lecturas de Don Quijote y La Celestina inspiraron el reencuentro del autor con las raíces judías de Sefarad. Su visita al barrio de Santa Cruz, la judería de Córdoba, los chuetas de Palma de Mallorca, las reminiscencias gastronómicas y musicales despertaron sus recuerdos de infancia. Sin obviar el debate suscitado en las cortes republicanas en apoyo de las comunidades judías de Marruecos y las escuelas israelitas de Tánger, tuteladas como difusoras de la cultura judía española.

8vo, br. ed. Enclosure marshals bold new and persuasive arguments about the ongoing dispossession of Palestinians. Revealing the Israel-Palestine landscape primarily as one of enclosure, geographer Gary Fields sheds fresh light on Israel s actions. He places those actions in historical context in a broad analysis of power and landscapes across the modern world. Examining the process of land-grabbing in early modern England, colonial North America, and contemporary Palestine, Enclosure shows how patterns of exclusion and privatization have emerged across time and geography. That the same moral, legal, and cartographic arguments were copied by enclosers of land in very different historical environments challenges Israel s current rationale as being uniquely beleaguered
8vp, br. ed. pp.370. l maschile, il femminile e le relazioni erotiche che ne derivano costituiscono, fin dall'epoca più remota, anche un modo di pensare le coppie di elementi opposti o complementari e i rapporti che intercorrono fra essi. In Occidente, alla tradizione di pensiero che da Empedocle e dal "Simposio" di Platone giunge sino ai testi ermetici si affianca quella ebraica, e più specificamente cabbalistica. Il racconto della creazione androgina del primo essere umano e della sua scissione in Adamo ed Eva e l'interpretazione del "Cantico dei Cantici" sono i fondamenti da cui si sviluppano speculazioni che estendono la sfera del pensiero erotico fino ad abbracciare la dimensione intradivina, creando una molteplicità di coppie sessuate che si rifrangono specularmente a tutti i livelli della realtà. In questo libro Moshe Idel, lo studioso che ha ripreso e sviluppato in nuove direzioni le indagini di Scholem, si addentra in quella che egli definisce la "cultura dell'eros" peculiare dell'ebraismo, dove il rapporto sessuale non solo assolve a un comandamento fondamentale, ma ha una valenza cosmica, poiché esercitando un'azione teurgica sulla sfera superna favorisce di riflesso l'unione di Dio con la sua consorte, la "Shekhinah", ovvero la sua presenza immanente, e fa così discendere sul mondo la benedizione dell'influsso divino. L'eros rappresenta dunque una via d'accesso privilegiata tanto alla conoscenza teosofica quanto all'esperienza mistica.
8vo, br. ed. 428pp. Fra le grandi narrazioni che hanno accompagnato la storia dell’uomo, quella dell’Esodo dall’Egitto è senza dubbio una delle più dense di significato, e il testo biblico che l’ha tramandata fino a noi ne è la vivida testimonianza letteraria. La potenza evocativa delle descrizioni – dalle dieci piaghe d’Egitto al prodigio del Mare dei giunchi – rischia tuttavia di lasciare in ombra gli sviluppi sotterranei del mito. In questo saggio Jan Assmann, con profondità e vastità di sguardo, interroga il libro dell’Esodo dal punto di vista dell’«egittologo che opera nel campo delle scienze culturali», risalendo alle origini dei suoi nuclei mitici e indagandone gli effetti e i riverberi nel tempo. Sarà così possibile vedere da una nuova prospettiva la cruciale rivelazione nel roveto ardente, allorché Yahweh manifesta la propria volontà e stabilisce un patto con il popolo eletto: «Con l’idea del patto viene al mondo la “fede”, che rappresenta l’autentica, rivoluzionaria novità del monoteismo biblico, sia esso veterotestamentario, neotestamentario o islamico». Nell’Antico Testamento, infatti, «“fede” ha lo stesso significato di “fedeltà”, ovvero fiducia nel patto». E il «monoteismo della fedeltà» porterà a una nuova idea di religione, in grado di gettare «le basi per un rapporto totalmente nuovo con il mondo, con Dio e con il tempo» – un rapporto destinato a perdurare fino alla modernità.
8vo, hardcover in dj. 387pp. From the award-winning historian of the Holocaust, Europe Against the Jews, 1880-1945 is the first book to move beyond Germany?s singular crime to the collaboration of Europe as a whole. The Holocaust was perpetrated by the Germans, but it would not have been possible without the assistance of thousands of helpers in other countries: state officials, police, and civilians who eagerly supported the genocide. If we are to fully understand how and why the Holocaust happened, Götz Aly argues in this groundbreaking study, we must examine its prehistory throughout Europe. We must look at countries as far-flung as Romania and France, Russia and Greece, where, decades before the Nazis came to power, a deadly combination of envy, competition, nationalism, and social upheaval fueled a surge of anti-Semitism, creating the preconditions for the deportations and murder to come. In the late nineteenth century, new opportunities for education and social advancement were opening up, and Jewish minorities took particular advantage of them, leading to widespread resentment. At the same time, newly created nation-states, especially in the east, were striving for ethnic homogeneity and national renewal, goals which they saw as inextricably linked. Drawing upon a wide range of previously unpublished sources, Aly traces the sequence of events that made persecution of Jews an increasingly acceptable European practice. Ultimately, the German architects of genocide found support for the Final Solution in nearly all the countries they occupied or were allied with. Without diminishing the guilt of German perpetrators, Aly documents the involvement of all of Europe in the destruction of the Jews, once again deepening our understanding of this most tormented history.

large 8vo, br. 233 x 153 mm. Language: English . Brand New Book. The Holocaust has never been so widely commemorated, but our understanding of the accepted narrative has rarely, if ever, been questioned. David Cesarani s sweeping reappraisal challenges accepted explanations for the anti-Jewish politics of Nazi Germany and the inevitability of the Final Solution . The persecution of the Jews was not always the Nazis central preoccupation, nor was it an inevitable process. Cesarani also reveals that in German-occupied countries it unfolded erratically, often due to local initiatives. Ghettos were improvised while the mass shooting of Jews during the invasion of Russia owed as much to the security situation as to anti-semitism. In this new interpretation, war is critical to the Jewish fate. Military failure denied the Germans opportunities to expel Jews into a distant territory and created a crisis of resources that led to starvation of the ghettos and intensified anti-Jewish measures. It was global war that eventually triggered genocide in Europe. Cesarani disputes the iconic role of railways, deportation trains and even Auschwitz, and reveals that plunder was more a cause of anti-Jewish feeling than a consequence of it. Using diaries and reports written in ghettos and camps, he exposes the extent of sexual violence and abuse of Jewish women by the Germans, their collaborators and, shockingly, by Jews themselves. But Cesarani also reveals the courage and ingenuity of those who struggled to evade capture and fought back wherever they could. And unlike previous histories, he follows the Jews journey to the Displaced Persons camps; camps which have so often been merely a footnote in the story but where Jews languished behind barbed wire for years after liberation . This moving and dramatic account captures the fate of the Jews, the horror and the heroism, in their own words. Resting on decades of scholarship it is compelling, authoritative, and profoundly disturbing.

br. ed. , 'Absolutely, definitively alone', a young Jewish student in Romania tries to make sense of a world that has decided he doesn't belong. Spending his days walking the streets and his nights drinking and gambling, meeting revolutionaries, zealots, lovers and libertines, he adjusts his eyes to the darkness that falls over Europe, and threatens to destroy him. Mihail Sebastian's 1934 masterpiece, now translated into English for the first time, was written as the rise of fascism forced him out of his career and turned his friends and colleagues against him. For Two Thousand Years is a prescient, heart-wrenching chronicle of resilience and despair, broken layers of memory and the terrible forces of history.

8vo, br. ed. "Preghiamo anche per i perfidi giudei", così recita nel venerdì santo il Missale romanum di Pio V, pubblicato nel 1570, sintetizzando l'immagine degli ebrei nella liturgia latina. Stanno qui le radici di uno stereotipo antisemita che le traduzioni in volgare dei testi liturgici introiettano nella mentalità cattolica. Ma dal tardo Settecento la cultura cattolica comincia a interrogarsi su questo "insegnamento del disprezzo" trasmesso dal culto pubblico e ufficiale della chiesa. Gli eventi culminati nella Shoah avviano poi un decisivo confronto con la storia, portando a un riesame del rapporto con gli ebrei. Lo testimoniano tormentati rifacimenti della preghiera del venerdì santo da Giovanni XXIII fino ai nostri giorni.
8vo, br. ed. La ricerca della verità sulla dolorosa scelta di Giuseppe Jona (1866-1943), medico ebreo e presidente della Comunità Israelitica di Venezia, morto suicida il 16 settembre 1943, si snoda come un'indagine appassionata per ricostruire il profilo psicologico del professore e comprendere la situazione storica che lo indusse a scegliere la morte come un fermo atto di negazione della barbarie nazista che gli avrebbe imposto di riconoscere e segnalare gli ebrei veneziani avviandoli alla deportazione. Per cogliere l'eredità scientifica e culturale di Giuseppe Jona sono qui proposti anche due suoi saggi: "Venezia medica del Settecento" e "La nostra sala anatomica" che tra i tanti lavori sientifici del Professor Jona, testimoniano del profondo legame con la storia della sanità veneziana.
