This book explores the life and thought of one of the most important but least known figures in early Zionism, Nathan Birnbaum. Now remembered mainly for his coinage of the word "Zionism," Birnbaum was a towering figure in early Jewish nationalism. Because of his unusual intellectual trajectory, however, he has been written out of Jewish history. In the middle of his life, in the depth of World War I, Birnbaum left his venerable position as a secular Jewish nationalist for religious Orthodoxy, an unheard of decision in his time. To the dismay of his former colleagues, he adopted a life of strict religiosity and was embraced as a leader in the young, growing world of Orthodox political activism in the interwar period, one of the most successful and powerful movements in interwar central and eastern Europe. Jess Olson brings to light documents from one of the most complete archives of Jewish nationalism, the Nathan and Solomon Birnbaum Family Archives, including materials previously unknown in the study of Zionism, Yiddish-based Jewish nationalism, and the history of Orthodoxy. This book is an important meditation on the complexities of Jewish political and intellectual life in the most tumultuous period of European Jewish history, especially of the interplay of national, political, and religious identity in the life of one of its most fascinating figures.

One of Rabbi Berel Wein's finest works, this innovative commentary on Pirkei Avos/Ethics of the Fathers belongs in every Jewish home. With an astute eye ever fixed on the complete traditional text, Rabbi Wein explains and interprets its contents in terms relevant to today's Jews. Revealing great insight into human behavior and replete with illuminating anecdotes, the work applies the words of the Sages to current Jewish experience. Did the Sages write Pirkei Avos specifically for our times? Rabbi Wein makes it appear so - for in his talented hands, the deep meanings of the text shine with new radiance. A noted historian, Rabbi Wein liberally punctuates his commentary with enlightening historical references and demonstrates his firm understanding of our era. The lessons of the Sages are enhanced by explanations of their original context, yet they seem to glide right into the twenty-first century. Pirkei Avos offers guidelines for successful living and the values it teaches are timeless. Secure in Rabbi Wein's scholarship, inspired by his meaningful examples (and even amused by touches of the rabbi's legendary wry humor), every reader will treasure this contemporary reading of one of Judaism's classics.

David Birnbaum's God and Evil is a major theological study which systematically confronts the philosophical problem of evil, and the Holocaust in particular. It presents an extensively researched and comprehensive review of the subject. In a clearly presented and readable exposition, Birnbaum then proposes a refreshing and powerful formulation. Combining modern and classic, rationalist and mystic themes, Birnbaum's proposed solution to the ancient problem of evil is perhaps the most elegant to appear in modern times. Though proceeding from a Jewish context, Birnbaum's compelling presentation and original synthesis will be of considerable value to adherents of all Western religions. God and Evil has been acclaimed by philosophers and theologians of all faiths. This philosophically exciting work has generated very considerable attention. It has been widely reviewed, has been selected as a Main Feature Selection of The Jewish Book Club, has already been assigned as a course text at major universities around the world, and has been critically acclaimed as "the best book in print on the subject." Also available now is new edition Summa Metaphysica Volume 1 God and Evil, Summa Metaphysica Volume 2 God and Good and two volume set of God and Evil & God and Good.

By the author of "A Wild Sheep Chase", which won the Noma Literary Award for New Writers, this novel combines science-fiction, satire and a warning of the dangerous powers of corporations.

En 1787, l’académie de Metz publie le sujet de son nouveau concours : « Est-il des moyens de rendre les juifs plus heureux et plus utiles en France ? » En cette fin du XVIIIe siècle qui précède de peu la Révolution française, en cette époque des Lumières où les protestants entrent enfin progressivement, après bien des persécutions, dans l’espace public, les juifs font figure de minorité dont la persistance dans l’histoire étonne et scandalise souvent. Leur émancipation se réalisera, après bien des discussions orageuses, en septembre 1791.Le concours de Metz constitue une étape essentielle de leur accès à la modernité. L’historiographie n’en a retenu que le fameux Essai sur la régénération physique, morale et politique des juifs de l’abbé Grégoire, un monument de l’histoire juive et de l’histoire française tout court, dont la seconde version a été largement publiée, rééditée sans cesse, commentée inlassablement, fêtée ou critiquée. Cet essai ne constitue cependant que l’un des neuf manuscrits ayant été déposés par les candidats afin d’être examinés.Or, jusqu’à présent, presque tous sont demeurés inconnus. Pourtant, ces textes inédits offrent un regard plus complexe sur la question posée par l’Académie – qui, de nos jours, paraît encore bien étrange. Surtout, leur analyse se révèle indispensable pour comprendre la place du pluralisme religieux dans la société issue des Lumières, ainsi que les singulières résistances qu’il rencontre en France.

Rabbi Meir Birnbaum is a scholar of tefillah and mashgiach of a major yeshivah. In this splendidly useful phrase-by-phrase treatment, he combines his scholarship and experience to shed light on the prayers that matter enormously to most people: the Shemoneh Esrai prayers of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Rabbi Birnbaum combs the major commentators and adds his own knowledge and sensitivity to produce a volume that belongs alongside every machzor. It is slim, but packed with information, inspiration, background - and the ideas and intent that every serious Jew wants to pour into his Yamim Noraim prayers. It is rare indeed to find an English-language volume that offers such a combination of clarity and depth, authoritatively presented in a down to earth manner. Rabbi Birnbaum is both a thinker and a teacher, and both those qualities are beautifully displayed in this work. Not only does he offer invaluable ideas, he is practiced in presenting them. There is nothing patronizing or condescending in this book; it reads like a good friend baring his own soul, and in the process we are swept along to join him in present our most heartfelt entreaties to Our Father Our King, on the days when He longs for us to approach Him.

In a visual hip hop of high art, Dara Birnbaum used TV fragments of sitcoms and superheroes to mark a decisive moment of confluence between video art and television in the late 1970s. Manipulating appropriated images from a highly manipulative medium, she arrests moments of TV time and invites viewers to critique and deconstruct the power of mass media. Each documented video work analyzes a particular TV convention, such as reverse angle shots, the two-shot and insertions. With special effects from Wonder Woman, Birnbaum points to television’s need for frequent transformation fantasies. Her intercuts in Pop-Pop Video: General Hospital/Olympic Women Speed Skating (1980) speak to “the totally homogeneous nature” of TV treatment in genres ranging from sporting events to daytime soap operas. Published in 1987 and edited by Benjamin H.D. Buchloh, this fourth volume in the Nova Scotia Pamphlets Series originated when Birnbaum was a visiting artist to NSCAD in 1980. Her provocative video works and multimedia installations are now considered among the most influential contributions to current discourse on art and television. Rough Edits also includes Norman M. Klein’s essay, “Audience Culture and the Video Screen,” and transcripts of Birnbaum’s New York interviews with video art distributors, staff at a non-profit alternative space, and curators responsible for successfully introducing video arts into two traditional high art institutions.
