Book
Cambridge, University Press, 2005. XVIII, 267 pp. Fine copy. Cloth with dustjacket. Art and Judaism explores the Jewish experience with art during the Greco-Roman period - from the Hellenistic period through the rise of Islam. It starts with the premise that Jewish art in antiquity was a 'minority' or 'ethnic' art and surveys ways that Jews fully participated in, transformed, and at times rejected the art of their general environment. It focuses upon the politics of identity during the Greco-Roman period, even as it discusses ways that modern identity issues have sometimes distorted and at other times refined scholarly discussion of ancient Jewish material culture.

Condition: Sehr gut. XVII; 267 Seiten; Illustr.; 28,5 cm; fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband m. farb. illustr. OUmschlag. Sehr gutes Exemplar. - Englisch. - Steven Fine is Jewish Foundation Professor of Judaic Studies at the University of Cincinnati . / Art and Judaism in the Greco Roman World: Toward a New Jewish Archaeology explores the Jewish experience with art from the Hellenistic era through the rise of Islam. It starts from the premise that Jewish art in antiquity was a "minority" or "ethnic" art and surveys ways that Jews fully participated in, transformed, and at times rejected the art of their general environment. Art and Judaism focuses on the politics of identity in the Greco Roman world, even as it discusses ways that modern identity issues have sometimes distorted and at other times refined scholarly discussion of ancient Jewish material culture. Art and Judaism, the first historical monograph on ancient Jewish art in the English language in fifty years, evaluates earlier scholarship as it sets out in new directions. Placing literary sources in careful dialogue with archaeological discoveries, this "New Jewish Archaeology" is an important contribution to Judaic studies, religious studies, art history, and classics.
