First printing, a trade paperback, issued simultaneously with hardcover. A collection of 21 essays - by Hebrew school teachers, principals, rabbis, Jews in the pews, and those who define themselves as secular - which show how they are "changing Jewish American culture, creating communities and making room for themselves, as openly, unapologetically queer and Jewish. Combining political analysis and personal memoir, these essays explore the various ways queer Jews are creating new forms of Jewish communities and institutions, and demanding that Jewish communities become more inclusive."

Hardbound. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Octavo in dust jacket, x, 300 pp., a few b/w illustrations, notes, bibliography, index "Yiddish and the Creation of Soviet Jewish Culture changes our perception of Jewish cultural history by giving voice to those pioneering activists who created a vibrant Yiddish culture in the Soviet Union in the 1920s. Empowered by the Soviet state and the Communist Party to create a secular culture for the "new" Soviet Jew, these activists sparked a cultural flowering in the official national language of Soviet Jews: Yiddish. The writers, artists, and intellectuals chronicled here founded Yiddish-language schools, wrote for Yiddish newspapers, published scholarly works, and dedicated themselves to an unprecedented burst of secular Jewish artistic and cultural expression. David Shneer explores the role these Jewish activists played within both Soviet and Jewish history. These activists deeply engaged widespread Jewish cultural trends of the era while simultaneously building the Soviet state and spreading its ideology. They were not passive objects of Soviet policies toward Jews, but rather they actively participated in the creation of these policies. Shneer shows how these activists were an integral part of twentieth-century Jewish history, and at the same time he addresses some of the painful truths about their involvement in the propagation of the Soviet system."

About the book >.>.> We write this book as "professional Jews," which we define as Jews who make a living from participating in Jewish education, culture, community, and society. Given this profession, we are frequently asked to declare our allegiance to Israel, a place that, although halfway around the world, for many seems to sit at the center of the Jewish universe. On David Shneer's first day on the job as the director of the University of Denver's Center for Judaic Studies, for example, a member of the Board of Directors asked, "What is your commitment to and stance on Israel?" Similarly, Caryn Aviv spent many years shuttling back and forth between Israel and Chicago. When today she recalls these travels, her students and colleagues, both Jewish and non-Jewish, frequently ask, "Weren't you scared to live there?" or "Isn't it dangerous?" More often than not, older Jews declare to her, "We need to support Israel no matter what. If we don't, who will?" Or they ask, "Isn't Israel supposed to be a bulwark against anti-Semitism?" About.…

near fine dust-jacket, attractive copy, very good black cloth. remainder stripe on bottom foredge. SHNEER, DAVID. Yiddish and the creation of Soviet Jewish culture, 1918-1930. Cambridge ; New York: Cambridge University Press, 2004, ix, 300pp., . "Yiddish and the Creation of Soviet Jewish Culture gives voice to the activists empowered by the state to create a Soviet Jewish national culture. These activists were striving for a national revolution to create a new culture for Jews to identify as Jews on new, secular, Soviet terms. This book explores the ways in which Jews were part of, not apart from, both the Soviet system and Jewish history. Soviet Jewish culture worked within contemporary Jewish national and cultural trends and simultaneously participated in the larger project of propagating the Soviet state and ideology. Soviet Jewish activists were not nationalists or Soviets, but both at once. David Shneer addresses some of the painful truths about the Jews' own implication and imbrication in the Soviet system and inserts their role in twentieth-century Jewish culture into the narrative of Jewish history." - CONTENTS: 1. Soviet nationalities policies and the making of the Soviet Yiddish intelligentsia -- 2. Ideology and Jewish language politics: How Yiddish became the national language of Soviet Jewry -- 3. Modernizing Yiddish -- 4. Who owns the means of cultural production? The Soviet Yiddish publishing industry of the 1920s -- 5.
