Readers needn't expect, however, to find easy agreement on what those insights are. The concept "diaspora" itself has proved controversial; galut, the traditional Hebrew expression for the Jews' perennial condition, is better translated as "exile." The very distinction between diaspora and exile, although difficult to analyze, is important enough to form the basis of several essays in this fine collection."Iden tity" is an even more elusive concept. The contributors to Diasporas and Exiles explore Jewish identity-or, more accurately, Jewish identities-from the mutually illuminating perspectives of anthropology, art history, comparative literature, cultural studies, German history, philosophy, political theory, and sociology. These contributors bring exciting new emphases to Jewish and cultural studies, as well as the emerging field of diaspora studies. Diasporas and Exiles mirrors the richness of experience and the attendant virtual impossibility of definition that constitute the challenge of understanding Jewish identity. 606 $aJewish diaspora$xHistory 606 $aJews$xIdentity 606 $aJews$xCivilization 610 $aacculturation. 610 $aadversity. 610 $aaffliction. 610 $aalien. 610 $aantisemitism. 610 $aarab. 610 $aassimilation. 610 $abelonging. 610 $aconcentration camps. 610 $adiaspora. 610 $aethnicity. 610 $aexile. 610 $afrance. 610 $agenocide. 610 $agermany. 610 $ahans tietze. 610 $aheine. 610 $aholocaust. 610 $ahomeland. 610 $aidentity. 610 $aisrael. 610 $ajew. 610 $ajewish community. 610 $ajewish identity. 610 $ajewish life. 610 $ajewish migration. 610 $ajewry. 610 $ajews as victims. 610 $ajudaica. 610 $ajudaism. 610 $amiddle east. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apalestine. 610 $aphilanthropy. 610 $arefugees. 610 $areligion. 610 $areligious communities. 610 $areligious difference. 610 $areligious identity. 610 $arite. 610 $aritual. 610 $asuffering. 610 $atradition. 610 $avictimhood. 610 $avienna. 610 $azion. 615 0$aJewish diaspora$xHistory. 615 0$aJews$xIdentity. 615 0$aJews$xCivilization. 676 $a909/.04924 701 $aWettstein$b Howard$0855735 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810630003321 996 $aDiasporas and exiles$94077211 997 $aUNINA
