'''Who am I?' and 'Who are we?' are the existential, foundational
questions in our lives. In our modern world, there is no construct
more influential than 'identity' - whether as individuals or as
groups. The concept of group identity is the focal point of a
research group named "A Question of Identity" at the Mandel
Scholion Interdisciplinary Research Center in the Humanities at the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The papers collected in this volume
represent the proceedings of a January 2017 conference organized by
the research group which dealt with identity formation in six
contextual settings: Ethno-religious identities in light of the
archaeological record; Second Temple period textual records on
Diaspora Judaism; Jews and Christians in Sasanian Persia;
minorities in the Persian achaemenid period; Inter-ethnic dialogue
in pre-1948 Palestine; and redefinitions of Christian Identity in
the Early Modern period.
