    Halevy, Halivni and The Oral Formation of the Babylonian Talmud Ari Bergmann Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Ari Bergmann All rights reserved ABSTRACT Halevy, Halivni and The Oral Formation of the Babylonian Talmud Ari Bergmann This dissertation is dedicated to a detailed analysis and comparison of the theories on the process of the formation of the Babylonian Talmud by Yitzhak Isaac Halevy and David Weiss Halivni. These two scholars exhibited a similar mastery of the talmudic corpus and were able to combine the roles of historian and literary critic to provide a full construct of the formation of the Bavli with supporting internal evidence to support their claims. However, their historical construct and findings are diametrically opposed. Yitzhak Isaac Halevy presented a comprehensive theory of the process of the formation of the Talmud in his magnum opus Dorot Harishonim. The scope of his work was unprecedented and his construct on the formation of the Talmud encompassed the entire process of the formation of the Bavli, from the Amoraim in the 4th century to the end of the saboraic era (which he argued closed in the end of the 6th century). Halevy was the ultimate guardian of tradition and argued that the process of the formation of the Bavli took place entirely within the amoraic academy by a highly structured and coordinated process and was sealed by an international rabbinical assembly. While Halevy was primarily a historian, David Weiss Halivni is primarily a talmudist and commentator on the Talmud itself.

  • Zion of Their Own Hebrew Women's Nationalist Writing
    Zion of Their Own Hebrew Women’s Nationalist Writing By Orian Zakai A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Comparative Literature) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Carol B. Bardenstein, Chair Associate Professor Shahar M. Pinsker Professor Anton Shammas Associate Professor Ruth Tsoffar © Orian Zakai 2012 Acknowledgements Many people have kindly offered me their invaluable support and guidance throughout the writing of this dissertation. I am particularly grateful to my advisor Carol Bardenstein for her patient and warm mentorship and her unwavering faith in my project. Carol’s uncompromising critical insights have driven me to expand my analytical horizons, and to constantly strive for more rigorous, original and precise thinking. I thank Ruth Tsoffar for inspiring conversations, for her attentive reading and perceptive commentary on my work, and, in particular, for being a guide and a model in the process of opening up texts and investigating the possibilities that every text holds. Shachar Pinsker’s scholarship and teaching have been a source of inspiration throughout the years. Shachar’s advice and support were invaluable in initiating me as a scholar of Hebrew literature. I feel fortunate for having worked with such a kind and generous mentor. I would like to extend my deep gratitude to Anton Shammas, whose wise remarks, as of the early stages of writing, have shaped my overall approach to the politics and poetics of texts. I hope I have managed to follow Anton’s advice and read the texts of the past with acute awareness of the present.

Dr. Susan Nashman Fraiman is a lecturer and researcher in the field of Jewish and Israeli art at the Rothberg International School of Hebrew University and received her Ph.D. from Hebrew University in 2013. She has been living in Israel for over 40 years. She is a Pardes alumna and she and her husband met at Pardes! In Conversation: Spiritual Exile & Redemption-Within oneself & the World at Large Rabbanit Nechama Goldman Barash & Yiscah Smith 3rd floor-Dining Room An exploration and conversation on what many consider to be the most well-known one verse declaration of one's Jewish identity, belief and trust in the Almighty --- the Shema Yisrael. How does the Shema restore the Divine unity to a fragmented world, exile followed by redemption --- both to the outer world and to one's inner world? What is the power of the Shema that Jews throughout the past 3500 years continuously recite this verse: whenever and wherever they have lived, regardless of degree of commitment to traditional or non-traditional Jewish Law and tradition, regardless of one's environment both in Israel and in the Diaspora, during times of health and joy and during times of suffering and pain, regardless of just about any other aspect of a person's life that defines a person's identity? And why is the Shema always read from the Torah on the Shabbat following Tisha B'Av? Rabbanit Nechama Goldman Barash studied for three years in Matan’s Advanced Talmud Institute and finished a master’s degree in Talmud at Bar-Ilan University.

  • General Assembly Security Council Sixtieth Session Sixty-First Year Agenda Item 14 the Situation in the Middle East
    United Nations A/60/990–S/2006/692 General Assembly Distr.: General 28 August 2006 Security Council Original: English General Assembly Security Council Sixtieth session Sixty-first year Agenda item 14 The situation in the Middle East Identical letters dated 23 August 2006 from the Deputy Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council On behalf of my Government, I have the honour to share with you a consolidated list containing the names of Israelis killed from 12 July 2006 to 14 August 2006 in Hizbullah terrorist attacks (see annex). As you know, on 12 July 2006, Israel was attacked by Hizbullah terrorists on its northern border, when eight soldiers were killed and two more abducted. What followed was 34 days of continued rocket attacks on northern Israeli communities, launched by Hizbullah terrorists in southern Lebanon. The attacks killed 157 Israelis and injured thousands of others, caused considerable damage to civilian infrastructure, and inflicted psychological trauma on Israel’s civilian population. It should also be mentioned that the two abducted soldiers, Udi Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, have yet to be released by their terrorist captors. I should be grateful if you would have the present letter and its annex circulated as a document of the sixtieth session of the General Assembly, under agenda item 14, and of the Security Council. (Signed) Daniel Carmon Ambassador Deputy Permanent Representative 06-48187 (E) 010906 *0648187* A/60/990 S/2006/692
