86. JS @ Emory - Literature jewish literature includes the classic texts of the Hebrew Bible and the Talmud, Popular jewish literature and its Role in the Making of Identity (West http://www.js.emory.edu/disciplines/literature.html

Disciplines in Jewish Studies: Literature About Faculty Related Courses Selected Readings Jewish literature includes the classic texts of the Hebrew Bible and the Talmud, as well as non-canonical texts, such as discoveries from the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Cairo Genizah and modern Hebrew poetry from Rahel Blaustein and Haim Nahman Bialik.  It also includes secular texts, written in many languages (for instance, English, Yiddish, or other European or Middle Eastern languages), that deal with aspects of Jewish life and culture. Literary critics analyze Jewish texts with the following guiding questions: Which genre is used and why? Who are the characters? What is the tone? How does the plot develop? Who is the author? What is the writer's intent? What are recurring themes and motifs? How do various schools of literary criticism understand the meaning of the text?  Is there meaning? Who is the author writing for? Who are the readers, intended or actual? If the author is multilingual, how is meaning affected by language choice? The purpose of literary criticism is to offer interpretive analysis, to make a value judgment, or to enrich the reader's understanding of the historical background of a work.  One critic's interpretation provokes a scholarly debate among other critics, who respond with fresh interpretations.

Item No: 2678-5 Safe Shopping Guarantee Description From The Publisher: From the crisis of the Babylonian exile to the rise of rabbinic Judaisma span of over six hundred yearsthe Jewish people produced a wealth of literature that lies outside the Hebrew Bible. Today it goes under names such as apocrypha and pseudepigrapha, Josephus and Philo, apocalyptic literature and the Dead Sea Scrolls, Mishnah and targums. But line by line, scroll by scroll, it represents the history and theology, the hopes and prayers of a living and diverse Judaism. It is an engrossing subject in and of itself, but for students of the New Testament it offers an invaluable context for understanding the words and actions of Jesus as well as the conversion and thinking of Paul. Exploring Jewish Literature of the Second Temple Period is an introduction to this literature that places it within its historical context. Riding the explosive growth of knowledge of this period, Larry Helyer guides students to the heart of the matter. What were the pressures and realities, the questions and dreams that nurtured and provoked these written expressions? And how does this literature throw light on the text of the New Testament and origins of Christianity?

93. Jewish-American Literature Overview of 19th and 20th century jewish writing in Yiddish and English, and criticism of recent Holocaust literature. http://www.jbuff.com/c021501.htm

Jewish-American Literature Commentary by Dr. Gerhard Falk Jewish-American Literature Jewish-American literature is now only about one century old if we include that literature which was written in Yiddish by immigrants between 1885 and 1935. Yiddish, however, is hardly used in America at the beginning of the 21st century so that anything foreign except some of the works of Goethe and Voltaire has no influence on the American Jew simply because he cannot read it. Yiddish writers were commonly radicals and secularists. From the time of the first volume of Yiddish poetry published in America in 1877 to the end of the Yiddish era in about 1975, Jewish-American writers always exhibited a strong interest in radical and hence secular ideas. Yiddish writers expressed themselves in poetry, in the theater, in novels, in newspapers and in intellectual books, papers and pamphlets. Throughout these five media ran, for the most part, a secular attitude most visible in the novel. The first Jewish novels written in America were written by immigrants. This was true not because there were no Jews here before the last two decades of the nineteenth century, but because those Jews who had come here before 1881 were very few, had arrived in the 17th century from Spain and Portugal and in the nineteenth century from Germany and had rapidly assimilated into the majority American culture. However, 1881 marked a major turning point in Jewish history. On March 1 of that year the Russian Czar, Alexander II, was assassinated. When

Site Orientation Heath Orientation Timeline Galleries Access Author Profile Pages by: Fifth Edition Table of Contents Fourth Edition Table of Contents Concise Edition Table of Contents Authors by Name ... Internet Research Guide Textbook Site for: The Heath Anthology of American Literature , Fifth Edition Paul Lauter, General Editor Abraham Cahan Abraham Cahan has been described as the single most influential personality in the cultural life of well over two million Jewish immigrants and their families during his lifetime. As a journalist and writer, his unique ability to mediate among the various sensibilities and languages of the Lower East Side in New York City placed him at the center of American Jewish culture and Jewish writing. His major fictional works, Yekl (1896) and The Rise of David Levinsky (1917), are widely recognized as classic accounts of the immigrant experience of Americanization. Born in Podberezy, Russia, Cahan was educated at traditional Jewish cheders and also studied at the Vilna Teachers Institute, a Russian government school for Jewish teachers. After graduating in 1881, he began teaching and at the same time became deeply involved in radical, underground anti-czarist activities. Forced to flee, he joined a group of immigrants bound for America and arrived in Philadelphia on June 5, 1882. The next day he reached New York, where his religious training proved useless and secular success beckoned. In 1890 he became editor of the weekly Arbeiter Zeitung

100. Noncanonical Literature The main jewish and Christian apocryphal and pseudepigraphal texts, Fathers of the Church and Gnostic literature of Nag Hammadi, Egypt. http://wesley.nnu.edu/biblical_studies/noncanon/

Home Search Contact Us Buy Wesley CDs Noncanonical Literature Documents to Aid Students and Scholars in Biblical Interpretation including Introductions and Summaries of Many Noncanonical Works The Bible is an invaluable collection of sacred ancient texts, written and assembled over several hundreds of years by numerous authors. These texts were written to particular people living at a definite time and place who shared common experiences and knowledge. By studying similar literature that precedes and follows the biblical writings chronologically, students of the Bible are better prepared to discover the intended meaning. Apocryphal and pseudepigraphal literature was apparently intended either to supplement or supplant existing canonical literature. Many of the apocryphal gospels offer guesses as to what occurred during the so-called "missing years" of Jesus' life during his childhood or after his resurrection. Others attempt to provide support for later theological convictions both orthodox and heretical. Whether the information found in the apocryphal literature is factually correct or not is not necessarily important. These documents give interpreters valuable insight into what some Jews and Christians believed in various places at different times.
