  • Kabbalah and the Subversion of Traditional Jewish Society in Early Modern Europe
    Kabbalah and the Subversion of Traditional Jewish Society in Early Modern Europe David B. Ruderman Most discussions about notions of authority and dissent in early mod- em Europe usually imply those embedded in Christian traditions, whether Protestant or Catholic. To address these same issues from the perspective of Jewish culture in early modem Europe is to consider the subject from a relatively different vantage point. The small Jewish com- munities of the fifteenth through seventeenth centuries were shaped in manifold ways by the norms and values of the Christian and Moslem host civilizations to which they belonged. Yet, they were also heirs to powerful rabbinic religious and political traditions that structured their social relationships and shaped their attitudes towards divine law, human responsibility, communal discipline, and authority. To examine their uni- verse of discourse in its proper context is to view it both in its own cul- tural terms and in its dialogue and negotiation with the non-Jewish world. No period in Jewish cultural history has undergone more radical refor- mulation and revision by recent scholarship than the early modem; though to what extent conventional schemes of periodization like "early modern," "Renaissance," or "baroque" can be meaningfully applied to the Jewish cultural experience is a question which still engenders much discussion and debate.' Equally problematic is a proper evaluation of the kabbalah, the traditions of Jewish mystical and esoteric experience, 1. For recent discussions of the meaning of the Renaissance and baroque when applied to Jewish culture, see D. B. Ruderman, "The Italian Renaissance and Jewish Thought," in Renaissance Humanism: Foundations and Forms, 3 vols., ed.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This volume attempts to make a modest contribution to the historical study of Jewish doubt, focusing on the encounter between atheistic and sceptical modes of thought and the religion of Judaism. Along with related philosophies including philosophical materialism and scientific naturalism, atheism and scepticism are amongst the most influential intellectual trends in Western thought and society. As such, they represent too important a phenomenon to ignore in any study of religion that seeks to locate the latter within the modern world. For scholars of Judaism and the Jewish people, the issue is even more pressing in that for Jews, famously, the categories of religion and ethnicity blur so that it makes sense to speak of non-Jewish Jews many of whom have historically been indifferent or even hostile to religion. Strictly speaking, Jewish engagement with atheism (i.e. disbelief in God’s existence) can scarcely be found before the modern period, unless one expands the definition to include biblical condemnations of practical atheism (i.e. non-observance), and Jewish attraction to ancient world beliefs that might be said to have challenged the idea of Jewish monotheism. Of course, there were also debates about the existence of others’ gods (e.g. disbelief in the official gods of the Classical world, or disbelief in the triune God of Christianity), which generated condemnations of Jewish atheism. Likewise, serious Jewish encounters with the Greek sources of philosophical scepticism (i.e. disbelief that a true knowledge of things is attainable by humans) are rare until thinkers like Simone Luzzatto in the early-modern period, although a weaker definition of scepticism (i.e.

IZZET BAHAR It was defended on March 21, 2006 and approved by Alex Orbach, PhD, Associate Professor Adam Shear, PhD, Assistant Professor Snjazana Buzov, PhD, Lecturer Alex Orbach, PhD, Associate Professor Dissertation Director ii JEWISH HISTORIOGRAPHY ON THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE AND ITS JEWRY FROM THE LATE FIFTEENTH CENTURY TO THE EARLY DECADES OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY I. Izzet Bahar, M.A. University of Pittsburgh, 2006 The thesis analyzes how Jewish historians presented the Ottoman Empire and its Jewish subjects during the long time span between the end of the fifteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth century. In the first part of the thesis, the key characteristics of the Jewish attitude towards history and history writing are analyzed. Throughout the ages of pre-1820, Jews are observed to be consciously lukewarm towards history. The sealing of the Bible and the emergence of an apocalyptic/messianic world view, which are both considered to have taken place around the last centuries of B.C.E., are illustrated as two major causes behind the emergence of this particular Jewish attitude towards history.

  • 7. Judah Moscato's Sources and Hebrew Printing in The
    7. JUDAH MOSCATO’S SOURCES AND HEBREW PRINTING IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY: A PRELIMINARY SURVEY Adam Shear In a project such as the one that produced this volume and the confe- rence out of which it grows, we pursue a deeper understanding of the particular mental framework and intellectual output of an individual figure; in doing so, we examine text in context, using the social, poli- tical, and even material conditions of the society in which our figure lives as the backdrop to our understanding of the extant “works” of the individual. At the same time, we pursue another goal in a dialectical relationship with the first: We also seek to use our study of the indi- vidual’s work as contributing more evidence for the reconstruction of the culture that surrounds our particular subject—context from text, if you will. Two modes of historical inquiry can thus be distinguished: the first, a focus on text that more or less treats context as backdrop. The second mode is one that works outward from text toward a defi- nition of some extra-textual aspect of the culture that produced (or later transmitted or preserved) that text. In practice, of course, the two modes are often practiced together or almost simultaneously within one historical project or publication. Indeed, “context” is the slippery concept here, as it can be applied both synchronically—to the society that produces the work—and diachronically within the framework of literary history or the history of ideas, in which the work is placed within a particular intellectual or literary trajectory.

  • José Penso De Vega : La Creació De Un Perfil Cultural Y Literario Entre
    STORIA DELL’EBRAISMO IN ITALIA STUDI E TESTI XXXI Diretta da Pier Cesare Ioly Zorattini Fernando José Pancorbo JOSEPH PENSO DE VEGA La creación de un perfil cultural y literario entre Ámsterdam y Livorno FIRENZE LEO S. OLSCHKI EDITORE MMXIX Casa Editrice Leo S. Olschki Viuzzo del Pozzetto, 8 50126 Firenze www.olschki.it Pubblicato grazie al Fondo Nazionale Svizzero della Ricerca Scientifica ISBN 978 88 222 6665 1 DOI 10.1400/271840 INTRODUCCIÓN La más imperiosa y bella parte del mundo es la política y fuerte Europa, la más ingeniosa y rica parte de Euro- pa es la famosa Holanda y su maravilla con los celestes resplandores de Vuestras Excelencias es la insigne ciu- dad de Ámsterdam, tan Babel de científicas justas como Atenas de diferentes lenguas. Y su mayor lauro es que teniendo tan diversas gentes de opuestas religiones, se mantiene pacífica con pocos ministros.1 A rasgos generales, a Joseph Penso de Vega se le recuerda fundamen- talmente como aquel autor judío que escribió el primer tratado de la Bolsa de Valores, bajo el título de Confusión de confusiones. Esto significa echar en el olvido la etapa, quizás, más importante de la historia cultural de la co- munidad sefardí de Ámsterdam y de la de Livorno, así como la verdadera importancia literaria de este escritor y la complejidad que presenta su codi- ficación cultural. Tras un largo período condenado a permanecer en las estanterías de volúmenes raros, o aparecer en los catálogos de libreros como un escritor de dudosa categorización, surgen a partir finales del siglo XIX las primeras ediciones de Confusión de confusiones.
