Infos

The interdisciplinary volume explores translation as a central Jewish cultural practice. Starting with the early translations of the Torah, the book engages with the role of translation in the life in the Diaspora and the project of Jewish state-building. The essays in this collection trace the story of how translation nourished Jewish culture, cast bridges to the Christian or Muslim world, and defined the boundary between the self and the Other.
