Taking S. An-sky's expeditions to the Pale of Jewish Settlement as
its point of departure, the volume explores the dynamic and
many-sided nature of ethnographic knowledge and the long and
complex history of the production and consumption of Jewish folk
traditions. These essays by historians, anthropologists,
musicologists, and folklorists showcase some of the finest research
in the field. They reveal how the collection, analysis, and
preservation of ethnography intersect with questions about the
construction and delineation of community, the preservation of
Jewishness, the meaning of belief, the significance of retrieving
cultural heritage, the politics of accessing and memorializing
"lost" cultures, and the problem of narration, among other topics.
