The essays in the Reader's Guide to Judaism analyse the scholarly literature on Judaism and provide informed recommendations for further reading. As well as surveying English-language secondary literature on the study of Judaism, articles also examine English-language translations of the most important primary texts in the Jewish tradition. The field is assessed in some 470 essays discussing individuals (Martin Buber, Glulekel of Hameln), literature (Genesis, Ladino Literature), thought and beliefs (Holiness, Bioethics), practice (Dietary Laws, Passover), history (Venice, Baghdadi Jews of India), and arts and material culture (Synaogue Architecture, Costume). The emphasis is on Judaism, rather than on Jewish studies more broadly. An international team of 200 scholars from the United States, Canada, Europe, Israel, and Australia have come together to produce this much-needed guide.
