For more information, please contact [email protected],[email protected]. HONOUR'S ROLE IN THE INTERNATIONAL STATES' SYSTEM* ALLEN Z. HERTZ* INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY Studying the First World War's origins, James Joll (1918-1994), Professor of International History at the University of London, offered this insight: "In the late 20th century we perhaps find it easier to conceive of foreign policy as being motivated by domestic preoccupations and by economic interests than by... considerations of prestige and glory. It does not necessarily follow that the men of 1914 thought in the same way as we do."' To recapture that age which ended during the First World War, this essay analyzes the meaning of "honour" as a staple of European political philosophy. The significance of the "word of honour" is then located in the context of European courtly society, where a king's honour is explored in relation to that of his country and in the "international of kings" that was the European States' system until 1917-18.

Eckhardt Head, Department of Comparative Literature; Director, School of Languages and Literatures *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of secular Jewish literatures since the Haskalah, or the movement toward “Jewish Enlightenment” that began around the end of the eighteenth century, is the reliance upon the archetypal aspects of the Judaic tradition, together with a propensity for intertextual pastiche and dialogue with the sacred texts. Indeed, from the revival of the Hebrew language at the end of the nineteenth century and all throughout the defining events of the last one hundred years, the trend of the textually sacrosanct appearing as a persistent motif in Judaic cultural production has only increased.

  • INTERVIEW with MENACHEM FISCH JUNE 15, 2014 Hava Tirosh
    INTERVIEW WITH MENACHEM FISCH JUNE 15, 2014 Hava Tirosh-Samuelson Professor Fisch, thank you for agreeing to participate in the Library of Contemporary Jewish Philosophers. The interview will begin by discuss- ing your upbringing, your intellectual trajectory, and your intellectual identity. Please tell us where were you born and where did you spend your formative years? What kind of education did you receive? I was born in Leeds, England, to Harold and Joyce Fisch, both of whom were born in England, too. My grandfather on my father’s side was Rabbi Solomon Fisch, who in a sense set the tone for my father and even for myself. He was born in Wolbrom, Poland, left home at a young age to study Torah in Germany, and finally migrated to England to serve as the rabbi of small communities in Liverpool, Birmingham, Sheffield, and eventually Leeds. He was a strict, old-school, Orthodox community rabbi. Yet at the same time, he studied for a doctorate in divinity at Manchester University. His doctoral dissertation, which took him years to complete, was a scien- tific edition of Midrash Hagadol Bamidbar, a late rabbinic midrashic text. The critical edition he produced was based on a Yemenite manuscript, for which he had to master Arabic and Greek to address the many philological problems it posed. So already my grandfather possessed a sort of dual per- sonality: a serious religious commitment on the one hand and a deep com- mitment to academic research on the other. But it wasn’t a split personality. My grandfather’s academic and scientific involvement was an integral part of his religious persona.

Manufactured in the United States of America Designed by G&H SOHO, Inc. CONTENTS Preface . vii Subject Index . 1 Author Index . 193 Book Reviews . 303 v PREFACE The goal of this cumulative index is two-fold. It is to serve as an historical reference to the conventions of the Rabbinical Assembly and to the statements, thoughts, and dreams of the leaders of the Conser- vative movement. It is also to provide newer members of the Rabbinical Assembly, and all readers, with insights into questions, problems, and situations today that are often reminiscent of or have a basis in the past. The entries are arranged chronologically within each author’s listing. The authors are arranged alphabetically. I’ve tried to incorporate as many individuals who spoke on a subject as possible, as well as included prefaces, content notes, and appendices. Indices generally do not contain page references to these entries, and I readily admit that it isn’t the professional form. However, because these indices are cumulative, I felt that they were, in a sense, an historical set of records of the growth of the Conservative movement through the twentieth century, and that pro- fessional indexers will forgive these lapses.

When the changing nature and locus of large-scale conflict in the post-Cold War era is also taken into account, the case for a reconsideration of the fundamentals of conflict analysis and conflict resolution becomes all the more stark. New Approaches to Conflict Analysis promotes the development of new theoretical insights and their application to concrete cases of large-scale conflict, broadly defined.

Its main contention is that Ecclesiastes 1.3-11 is an exposition of the collocation that ends 1.2, of hakkol hevel, and that consequently, the best way to begin to understand hevel in Ecclesiastes is to understand 1.3-11. Chapter 1 presents the scholarly conversation this project enters while presenting some of the unresolved problems the primary text creates.

  • The Debate Over Gush Emunim
    Bar Zecharya – [email protected] Università degli Studi “La Sapienza” Zionist Authenticity: The Debate over Gush Emunim [A]bove and beyond the legitimate security concerns regarding the West Bank and Gaza, the debate in Israel has a much deeper dimension, going back to basic belief systems and ideological commitments. These considerations relate directly to the protagonists’ respective self-definition as Israelis and to their conflicting perceptions of the nature and aims of Zionism.1 The 1970s and ‘80s witnessed the foundation and the activities of Gush Emunim – a grass-roots movement dedicated to the building of Jewish settlement in the West Bank. Gush Emunim’s extra-parliamentary activities included illegal settlement attempts and resistance to evacuations, lobbying, mass demonstrations and association with and defense of the Jewish underground, responsible for terror attacks against Arabs and the planned destruction of the Dome of the Rock. The group has been termed “fundamentalist”, “extremist”, “radical” and “messianic”, especially with regard to its brand of Religious Zionism as taught by Rabbi Zvi Yehuda Kook, whereby settlement and Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel is a divine command and a messianic process. The movement has been the subject of intense and varied analysis both in the press and the academy: its operational strategy, support base, political connections, ideology and religious inspiration have been well researched over the last three decades. One of the more surprising aspects of this phenomenon is that even for Israeli standards the controversy over Gush Emunim has been so heated and emotional. Eliezer Don- Yehiya, when surveying the literature on the subject in 1987, noted the contrasts between different assessments of the movement: from seeing it as having a “profound impact”2 or wielding “tremendous power”3 on the Israeli political scene to being of 1 Avineri 1986, p.
