A brief history of Israeli folk dance is accompanied by directions for fifty-three Israeli folk dances and songs for each dance.

The result is a fascinating parallel ethnography, showing how the ethnography of dance forms contributes to evolving notions of collective national and political identity in a context of unequal power.

Taken together, this wide range of expression illustrates the vitality, necessity, and continuity of dance in Judaism. This volume com...
