| Title: A Kabbalist in Montreal |
| Sub-title: The Life and Times of Rabbi Yudel Rosenberg |
| By (author): Ira Robinson |
| ISBN13: 9798887194448 |
This book illuminates important issues faced by Orthodox Judaism in the modern era by relating the life and times of Rabbi Yudel Rosenberg (1859â 1935). In presenting Yudel Rosenbergâ s rabbinic activities, this book aims to show that Jewish Orthodoxy could serve as an agent of modernity no less than its opponents. Yudel Rosenbergâ s considerable literary output will demonstrate that the line between â secularâ and â traditionalâ literature was not always sharp and distinct. Rabbi Rosenbergâ s kabbalistic works will shed light on the revival of kabbala study in the twentieth century. Yudel Rosenbergâ s career in Canada will serve as a counter-example to the often-expressed idea that Hasidism exercised no significant influence on the development of American Judaism at the turn of the twentieth century. |

| Title: French Jewry and the Church-State Dilemma |
| Sub-title: From the Revolution to the Great War (1789-1914) |
| By (author): Zvi Jonathan Kaplan |
| ISBN13: 9798887197845 |
| This book analyzes the development of Jewish positions on the relationship between Church and State from the Revolution until the Great War It is a comprehensive study of the complex interplay among different segments of the Jewish population and the communityâ s attempt to come to terms with its social and religious status in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As this book demonstrates, the organized French Jewish community strategically charted the political waters by steering clear of extremist political positions and by adopting a â soft clericalâ approach to Church-State issues. This centrist approach subjected French Jews to criticism from both anticlerical and clerical forces, but nonetheless the rabbinate, consistorial officials, and the Jewish press believed that French Judaism and French Jewry would thrive most in a climate of moderation. |

| Edited by: Simcha Fishbane, Eric M. Levine Managing editor: Yosef Dov Robinson |
| ISBN13: 9798887194677 |
This book presents a group of distinguished scholars who examine key themes in Jewish religious life. Their essays revolve around the dimensions of rabbinic, intellectual, cultural, communal, educational, political, and social leadership, as well as a reflective look at one of the most tragic events in Jewish experience, towards the hope of repairing the world and not repeating such evil. The scholarship reproduced in this volume captures the essence of Touro University: remembering the past, perpetuating the rich historic Jewish tradition of tolerance and dignity, and managing the delicate ballet of serving humanity and the Jewish community at the same time. These papers are expressive of the Jewish commitment to intellectual inquiry, the transmission of knowledge, and the pursuit of social justice. |
