Summary:
JPS is proud to reissue Cohen and Mendes-Flohr's classic work,
perhaps the most important, comprehensive anthology available on 20th
century Jewish thought. This outstanding volume presents 140 concise
yet authoritative essays by renowned Jewish figures Eugene Borowitz,
Emil Fackenheim, Blu Greenberg, Susannah Heschel, Jacob Neusner,
Gershom Scholem, Adin Steinsaltz, and many others. They define and
reflect upon such central ideas as charity, chosen people, death,
family, love, myth, suffering, Torah, tradition and more. With
entries from Aesthetics to Zionism, this book provides striking
insights into both the Jewish experience and the Judeo-Christian
tradition.
