Instrument of Memory

How can immortality be a curse? According to the Wandering Jew legend, as Jesus made his way to Calvary, a man refused him rest, cruelly taunting him to hurry to meet his fate.

Using the lens of memory studies, the work shows how the Christian tradition of the legend cen...

Around the Point

Around the Point is a unique collection that brings to readers the works of almost thirty scholars dealing with Jewish literature in various Jewish and non-Jewish languages, such as Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino, French, Italian, German, Hungarian, Serbian, Polish, and Russian. Although this volume does not cover all the languages of Jewish letters, it is a significant endeavor in establishing the realm of multilingual international study of Jewish literature and culture. Among the questions under discussion, are the problems of the definition of Jewish identity and literature, literary history, language choice and diglossy, lingual and cultural influences, intertextuality, Holocaust literature, Kabbala and Hassidism, Jewish poetics, theatre and art, and the problems of the acceptance of literature.

"This book is based on the records of the Benjamin and Vladka Meed Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors. The Registry is a computer database that lists more than 170,000 names of Holocaust survivors and some members of their families. The American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors first established a national registry in 1981 to document the lives of survivors who came to the United States after World War II ... The Registry includes the names of Holocaust survivors who are now deceased, but does not indicate that they have passed away ... this published version only includes information about the survivors based on their individual files."--Introduction
