The Cambridge Guide to Jewish History, Religion, and Culture is a
comprehensive and engaging overview of Jewish life, from its
origins in the ancient Near East to its impact on contemporary
popular culture. The twenty-one essays, arranged historically and
thematically, and written specially for this volume by leading
scholars, examine the development of Judaism and the evolution of
Jewish history and culture over many centuries and in a range of
locales. They emphasize the ongoing diversity and creativity of the
Jewish experience. Unlike previous anthologies, which concentrate
on elite groups and expressions of a male-oriented rabbinic
culture, this volume also includes the range of experiences of
ordinary people and looks at the lives and achievements of women in
every place and era. The many illustrations, maps, timeline, and
glossary of important terms enhance this book s accessibility to
students and general readers.
