The play "Masada Revisited" is a semi - fictionalized retelling in play form of an incident set in the locale of Masada, a place near the Dead Sea in modern day Israel, that occurred in 73 ce. It refers to the last event of the Jewish War against the Romans that lasted from 66 ce to 70 ce with cleanup operations lasting until 73 ce, Masada being the last one. The only historical refence is from the book "The Jewish War Against the Romans" written by the historian Josephus who lived in the first century ce. Josephus was not an eyewitness to the incident and was notoriously inaccurate sometimes as well as having to write under the constraint of ingratiating himself with his Roman sponsors. Many Jewish people object to the original form of the story. This version is, hopefully, less objectionable.

"The book "Judas the Galilean" by Daniel Unterbrink published by iUniverse contains some background material that is referred to in the play "Masada Revisited.""

Isaac and Amanda - A Play in Ten Scenes (Paperback): Arthur Ziffer, Herbert Hauptman Isaac and Amanda - A Play in Ten Scenes (Paperback)
Arthur Ziffer, Herbert Hauptman
R414 Discovery Miles 4 140 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The play "Isaac and Amanda" is among other things a love story about Isaac Newton and a woman named Amanda. It also contains material about the conflicts that Newton had with the scientist Robert Hooke and the mathematician Leibniz. The latter conflict deals with the issue of who should receive credit for the discovery of Calculus. Furthermore, it deals with that period of Newton's life when he was an official in the Mint (the equivalent in the United States of the Treasury Department) trying to solve Britain's currency problems and his difficulties with the master counterfeiter Challoner and especially Challoner's wife. Finally, it brings up the issue of Newton's year when he was so depressed that some people say he had a nervous breakdown. Some of the material in "Isaac and Amanda" is to be found in the play "On the Shoulders of Giants," written by the same authors.

Masada Revisited III - A Play in Nine Scenes (Paperback): Arthur Ziffer Masada Revisited III - A Play in Nine Scenes (Paperback)
Arthur Ziffer
R410 Discovery Miles 4 100 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Masada Revisited III gives a different view of what happened at Masada in 73ce when the Jewish defenders, according to the only historical account as given by Josephus in his book "The Jewish War," committed mass suicide. Many Jewish people are disconcerted by this version of the story. Since Josephus wrote under the constraint of trying to please his Roman sponsors, his accuracy is suspect. The version given in this play is hopefully more palatable.
