In his introduction, Levy distinguishes modern antisemitism from the ancient Western tradition of hatred. Representing this modern version are famous antisemites such as Richard Wagner, Henry Ford, and Adolf Hitler, as well as other frequently overlooked writings, many of them in Levy' s own translations. A collection of illustrations, most of them quite rare, offers additional documentation of antisemitic propaganda.

A weekly spiritual practice for developing a strong and open heart--drawn from Judaism's Mussar tradition

Mussar draws from the vast storehouse of Jewish wisdom, law, revelation, and text and brings it right home in a way that is completely practical. Judaism teaches that Torah (the collective wisdom of the tradition) provides the blueprint for human experience--and so the more of it we acquire, the more we gain a clearer, truer perspective on life and learn how to navigate its pathways.

Paul Kriwaczek begins this illuminating and immensely pleasurable chronicle of Yiddish civilization during the Roman empire, when Jewish culture first spread to Europe. We see the burgeoning exile population disperse, as its notable diplomats, artists and thinkers make their mark in far-flung cities and found a self-governing Yiddish world. By its late-medieval heyday, this economically successful, intellectually adventurous, and self-aware society stretched from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Kriwaczek traces, too, the slow decline of Yiddish culture in Europe and Russia, and highlights fresh o...
