What makes us what we are? How does our gender affect our identity?
Who are our heroes and heroines and how do they mould the decisions
we make and the way we live our lives? In what ways does our
connection - or lack there of - to our birth religion shape our
adult selves? These are just some of the questions which Identity,
Heroism and Religion in the Lives of Contemporary Jewish Women
addresses. In examining the lives and deaths of various Jewish
women during the 20th and 21st centuries this study focuses on the
dynamic by which they formed their identities at times of crisis,
whether in pre-State Israel, during and after the Holocaust in
liberated Europe, or throughout Israel's formative years. As
refugees, survivors, new immigrants or veteran citizens of a
country these women's lives are probed and analyzed in terms of
their relationship to each other, to their surroundings, their
past, their future, their ideologies, and their geographic and
virtual communities, presenting us with a mosaic of contemporary
Jewish women's lives.
