Beschreibung

Exile and the Jews is the first comprehensive anthology examining the Jewish response to exile from the biblical period to our modern day. Each chapter presents a different facet of exile: as human condition, in history and life, in holiday rituals, in language, as penance and atonement, as internalized experience, in relation to the Divine presence, and more.
