Book Description:
|
With a fresh perspective, this book challenges the current historical paradigm in the study of Orthodox Judaism and other tradition-bound faith communities in the United States. Paying attention to "lived religion", the book moves beyond sermons and synagogues and examines the webs of experiences mediated by any number of American cultural forces.
