Jewish Cultures of the World
Jewish Cultures of the
World will publish books that examine Jewish life through the
methodologies of ethnography and cultural studies. It will include the
work of anthropologists, ethnomusicologists, folklorists, historians,
linguists, and sociologists, as well as scholars working in the fields
of cultural studies, performance studies, and religious studies.
Dealing with Jewish existence throughout the diaspora and in Israel,
and including studies of Jews' interrelations with their non-Jewish
neighbors, this series will offer books of interest to scholars in
Jewish studies and those in comparative religion, cultural
anthropology, ethnic studies, and other related fields. Jewish
Cultures of the World is committed to publishing works of vivid
ethnography and strong writing, books of interest to an array of
scholars in the humanities and social sciences as well as to a general
audience.
