About This Item
Ann Arbor, Michigan: UMI, 2002. First edition. Hardcover. vg. Large octavo. X, 476pp. Full library buckram with white lettering on spine. Fly leaf inscribed, signed and dated by the author. Fascinating study which examines the transformation of Jewish culture from pre-modern, rabbinic, and halakhic Judaism, defined by practices of male learning and ritual observance in which women occupied an inferior and marginal position, to Judaism as a culture of bourgeois religiosity in which religious sentiment and bourgeois aesthetics, Bildung (harmonious formation of the heart and the intellect) and Sittlichkeit (morality) figured prominently, and in which the hierarchical division between men and women subsided. Minor staining along joints. Binding in overall very good, interior in fine condition.
