Nathaniel Deutsch follows the traces left by the Maiden in both history and legend to fully explore her fascinating story for the first time. The Maiden of Ludmir offers powerful insights into the Jewish mystical tradition, into the Maiden's place within it, and into the remarkable Jewish community of Ludmir. Her biography ultimately becomes a provocative meditation on the complex relationships between history and memory, Judaism and modernity. History first finds the Maiden in the eastern European town of Ludmir, venerated by her followers as a master of the Kabbalah, teacher, and visionary, and accused by her detractors of being possessed by a dybbuk, or evil spirit. Deutsch traces the Maiden's steps from Ludmir to Ottoman Palestine, where she eventually immigrated and re-established herself as a holy woman. While the Maiden's story-including her adamant refusal to marry-recalls the lives of holy women in other traditions, it also brings to light the largely unwritten history of early-modern Jewish women. To this day, her transgressive behavior, a challenge to traditional Jewish views of gender and sexuality, continues to inspire debate and, sometimes, censorship within the Jewish community. 606 $aWomen rabbis$vBiography 606 $aZaddikot$vBiography 607 $aVolodymyr-Volynskyi (Ukraine)$vBiography 615 0$aWomen rabbis 615 0$aZaddikot 676 $a296.8332092 686 $a11.26$2bcl 700 $aDeutsch$b Nathaniel$0451449 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969140403321 996 $aThe maiden of Ludmir$94362726 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03941nam 22006375 450 001 9910299968803321 005 20251230064954.0 010 $a3-662-43831-3 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-662-43831-2 035 $a(CKB)3710000000225342 035 $a(EBL)1802640 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001338670 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11780380 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001338670 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11345524 035 $a(PQKB)11218509 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1802640 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-662-43831-2 035 $a(PPN)180623818 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000225342 100 $a20140822d2014 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aConformal Field Theory, Automorphic Forms and Related Topics $eCFT, Heidelberg, September 19-23, 2011 /$fedited by Winfried Kohnen, Rainer Weissauer 205 $a1st ed. 2014. 210 1$aBerlin, Heidelberg :$cSpringer Berlin Heidelberg :$cImprint: Springer,$d2014. 215 $a1 online resource (370 p.) 225 1 $aContributions in Mathematical and Computational Sciences,$x2191-3048 ;$v8 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a1-322-17299-4 311 08$a3-662-43830-5 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $a1.

Conway and S.P. Norton, which predicted a deep relationship between the characters of the largest simple finite sporadic group, the Monster, and the theory of modular forms inspired by the observations of J. MacKay and J. Thompson.   The contributions are based on lectures delivered at the 2011 conference on Conformal Field Theory, Automorphic Forms and Related Topics, organized by the editors as part of a special program offered at Heidelberg University that summer under the sponsorship of the MAThematics Center Heidelberg (MATCH). 410 0$aContributions in Mathematical and Computational Sciences,$x2191-3048 ;$v8 606 $aNumber theory 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aNumber Theory 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics 615 0$aNumber theory. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 14$aNumber Theory. 615 24$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 676 $a530.143 702 $aKohnen$b Winfried$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWeissauer$b Rainer$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299968803321 996 $aConformal field theory, automorphic forms and related topics$91409972 997 $aUNINA
