Woolf presents the first integrated presentation of the ideals and beliefs that comprised the self-image and worldview of Ashkenazic Jews in the Central and High Middle Ages (900-1300). Through careful examination of a wide range of sources (legal, customal, liturgical, artistic), Woolf shows how religious practice played a dual role in creating and sustaining Jewish life in a hostile environment. They instilled these values, and recast religious traditions to reflect them. The author demonstrates how hitherto underappreciated ideals such as Purity, Sanctity, and a palpable sense of Divine In-Dwelling played a central role in Ashkenazic religiousity and merged to form the texture, or the \'Sacred Canopy,\' of their lives.Études sur le judaïsme médiéval30.AshkenazimHistoryTo 1500JudaismFranceHistoryTo 1500Hasidism, MedievalJewsEuropeSocial life and customsTo 1500JewsFranceSocial life and customsHistoryTo 1500JewsGermanySocial life and customsHistoryTo 1500JewsItalySocial life and customsHistoryTo 1500Jewish way of lifeHistoryTo 1500AshkenazimfastHasidism, MedievalfastJewish way of lifefastJewsSocial life and customsfastJudaismfastItalyfastEuropefastFrancefastGermanyfastHistory.fastAshkenazimHistoryJudaismHistoryHasidism, Medieval.JewsSocial life and customsJewsSocial life and customsHistoryJewsSocial life and customsHistoryJewsSocial life and customsHistoryJewish way of lifeHistoryAshkenazim.Hasidism, Medieval.Jewish way of life.JewsSocial life and customs.Judaism.296.09Woolf Jeffrey R1145953NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910797496903321The fabric of religious life in medieval Ashkenaz (1000-1300)3721225UNINA
