  • Jewish Subcultures Online: Outreach, Dating, and Marginalized Communities ______
    JEWISH SUBCULTURES ONLINE: OUTREACH, DATING, AND MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in American Studies ____________________________________ By Rachel Sara Schiff Thesis Committee Approval: Professor Leila Zenderland, Chair Professor Terri Snyder, Department of American Studies Professor Carrie Lane, Department of American Studies Spring, 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis explores how Jewish individuals use and create communities online to enrich their Jewish identity. The Internet provides Jews who do not fit within their brick and mortar communities an outlet that gives them voice, power, and sometimes anonymity. They use these websites to balance their Jewish identities and other personal identities that may or may not fit within their local Jewish community. This research was conducted through analyzing a broad range of websites. The first chapter, the introduction, describes the Jewish American population as a whole as well as the history of the Internet. The second chapter, entitled “The Black Hats of the Internet,” discusses how the Orthodox community has used the Internet to create a modern approach to outreach. It focuses in particular on the extensive web materials created by Chabad and Aish Hatorah, which offer surprisingly modern twists on traditional texts. The third chapter is about Jewish online dating. It uses JDate and other secular websites to analyze how Jewish singles are using the Internet. This chapter also suggests that the use of the Internet may have an impact on reducing interfaith marriage. The fourth chapter examines marginalized communities, focusing on the following: Jewrotica; the Jewish LGBT community including those who are “OLGBT” (Orthodox LGBT); Punk Jews; and feminist Jews.

  • The Transformation of Tallitot Rebecca Shulman
    9 The Transformation of Tallitot: How Jewish Prayer Shawls Have Changed Since Women Began Wearing Them By Rebecca Shulman "For some time, Frieda Birnbaum came to morning prayer at the Orthodox Lincoln Square Synagogue with a tallit* in her briefcase. She had been scared to take it out and put it on. She had been scared to buy it. ("For my nephew," she mumbled to the salesman.) Davening** alone at home, she wore the tallit. But she couldn't summon up the courage to wear it in shul and would end up “shlepping” it on the subway to her job as a computer programmer. One morning, Frieda Birnbaum said to herself: "Dammit! If I can daven in my tallit at home, I can sure as hell daven in my tallit in shul!" And she did. A friend of hers arrived, and she did too. These were the first women known to wear tallesim*** in shul in the New York area. Revolutionary heroines."1 In the early 1970s, as the women's movement was gaining strength in the United States, Jewish women were simultaneously struggling for equal rights within the Jewish community. The tallit helped to define this struggle: by putting on tallitot women loudly and visibly proclaimed themselves equal members of the Jewish community. By changing the appearance of prayer shawls -- by wearing tallitot of colorful silks, for example -- women claimed these ritual objects as their own. There has been an ongoing debate in the Jewish community about whether appropriation of male-associated rituals and objects is a fitting or useful way to demonstrate equality.

  • Ou Israel Center - Summer 2019
    5779 - dbhbn ovrct [email protected] 1 sxc HALACHIC AND HASHKAFIC ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY 132 - HALACHA AND KABBALA - PART 2 OU ISRAEL CENTER - SUMMER 2019 • In Part 1 we saw how the early Acharonim began to assimilate the Zohar into the halachic process. The positions included: • R’ Elyahu Mizrachi (15C Turkey) - kabbalistic concepts are highly esoteric and, although special individuals are free to adopt them, ordinary people are not required to follow them. • Radvaz (16C Egypt) - kabbalistic practices are acceptable as chumrot, but not where they contradict the Talmud. • Beit Yosef (16C Eretz Yisrael) - incorporates selected halachot of the Zohar into the mainstream halacha. Where the Zohar conflicts with Talmud, the Talmud prevails. However, where the Zohar conflicts with the post-talmudic poskim, the Zohar prevails. • The Rema (16C Poland) - disagrees with the Beit Yosef on the latter point. According to the Rema, the Zohar cannot even override the post-talmudic poskim. • The Maharshal (16C Poland) - is concerned in many cases about the problems of integrating kabbala into halacha. • The Maseit Binyamin (17C Poland) - considers that the Zohar outweighs all the post-Talmudic poskim put together! • R. Ya’akov Emden (18C Germany) - whilst skeptical about the origins of every word of the Zohar, maintains that, although in any dispute between the Zohar and the Bavli we follow the Bavli, where the Bavli is unclear and subject to many interpretations and the Zohar can clarify the position, we are to look to the Zohar. The Zohar should not be rejected in halacha, provided it does not directly contradict the Bavli and we should try wherever possible to reconcile the Zohar and the Bavli.

  • Yuhara When There Is a Halachic Imperative 1. If One Is Doing A
    Yuhara when there is a Halachic Imperative 1. If one is doing a certain practice because one got a certain pesak from one’s rav or because it is to fulfill the basic halacha, it isn’t considered yuhara even if it isn’t the minhag. 1 Nonetheless one can only do so with the intent for the mitzvah and not to be arrogant.2 For example, according to Rav Schachter, it isn’t yuhara to wear techelet in a place that the minhag is not to because the primary halacha requires it. 3 2. If it is accepted in your place that some people do this midat chasidut, then it isn’t considered yuhara. 4 3. If someone is known for his chasidut, then it isn’t yuhara to do so for the sake of heaven. 5 1. The Mordechai (Brachot n. 1) writes that since points out that today there's no yuhara to do this Rabbenu Tam held that if one said Shema after since some people have the minhag to do it. Plag Hamincha one fulfilled his obligation if one Chida (Chaim Shaal 1) and Shulchan Aruch does repeat it later it appears as yuhara. Bet Hamidot v. 1 p. 128 agree. However, Shvut Yakov Yosef 235:1 argues that it isn’t yuhara to repeat 2:44 argues that there is yuhara to wear Rabbenu Shema since according to many rishonim one Tam tefillin even if some people do it unless most didn't fulfill one's mitzvah. This is also his opinion do it.

Although other scholars may have studied Rabbi Nachman, I.B. Singer, Chaim Potok and Pearl Abraham individually, no one has combined their works and examined the depiction of Hasidism through the codes and conventions of different literary genres. Additionally, my research on Judy Brown and Frieda Vizel raises urgent questions about the gendered foundations of Hasidism that are largely elided in the earlier texts.
