[315]-334) and index.Toward a cultural history of Jewish populations in Roman North Africa -- Locating Jews in a North African world -- Naming like the neighbors: Jewish onomastic practices in Roman North Africa -- Inscribing the dead to describe the living: reading Jewish identity through funerary language -- Questioning "Jewishnesss" in the North African synagogue: Hammam Lif as a case study -- North African Jewish responses to death: choosing appropriate gods, neighbors, and houses in the afterlife.Reliance on essentialist or syncretistic models of cultural dynamics has limited past evaluations of ancient Jewish populations. This reexamination of evidence for Jews of North Africa offers an alternative approach. Drawing from methods developed in cultural studies and historical linguistics, this book replaces traditional categories used to examine evidence for early Jewish populations and demonstrates how direct comparison of Jewish material evidence with that of its neighbors allows for a reassessment of what the category of “Jewish” might have meant in different North African locations and periods and, by extension, elsewhere in the Mediterranean. The result is a transformed analysis of Jewish cultural identity that both emphasizes its indebtedness to larger regional contexts and allows for a more informed and complex understanding of Jewish cultural distinctiveness.Religions in the Graeco-Roman world ;v. 161.JewsAfrica, NorthHistoryTo 1500Jewish sepulchral monumentsAfrica, NorthTombsAfrica, NorthDeathReligious aspectsJudaismJudaismAfrica, NorthHistoryTo 1500JudaismHistoryPost-exilic period, 586 B.C.-210 A.DAfrica, NorthAntiquities, RomanAfrica, NorthEthnic relationsElectronic books.JewsHistoryJewish sepulchral monumentsTombsDeathReligious aspectsJudaism.JudaismHistoryJudaismHistory939/.700492415.80bclStern Karen B872708MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453010803321Inscribing devotion and death1948409UNINA05952nam 2200541 450 991051138370332120180613001134.090-04-28202-590-04-28530-X10.1163/9789004285309(CKB)2670000000613541(EBL)2036930(SSID)ssj0001481436(PQKBManifestationID)11823360(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001481436(PQKBWorkID)11501348(PQKB)11182365(MiAaPQ)EBC2036930(OCoLC)908192413(OCoLC)908514435(nllekb)BRILL9789004285309(EXLCZ)99267000000061354120150430d2015 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrBetween China and Japan the writings of Joshua Fogel /by Joshua FogelBoston :Brill,2015.1 online resource (657 p.)The Writings ofDescription based upon print version of record.Print version: Fogel, Joshua A.

This volume brings together many of his essays and reviews in this new field. For a variety of reasons discussed within, scholars have been reluctant to look at these two nation’s historical connections, either through comparative analysis or actual interactions. Fogel’s work has focused squarely here. Among the issues addressed are Japanese scholarly views of modern China and Chinese history, Chinese considerations of the Japanese language in the Ming and Qing periods, the Japanese immigration to the East Asian Mainland (especially to Shanghai and Harbin), and more.The Writings of7.ChinaRelationsJapanJapanRelationsChinaElectronic books.303.48251052Fogel Joshua A.1950-866834NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910511383703321Between China and Japan2547998UNINA
