--- Message requiring your approval -- From: Academic Studies Press pr...@academicstudiespress.com Subject: [ha-Safran]: Jacob's Ladder: Kabbalistic Allegory in Russian Literature Dear Friends, Academic Studies Press is pleased to announce the publication of Marina Aptekman's newest title, Jacob's Ladder: Kabbalistic Allegory in Russian Literature. Jacob's Ladder: Kabbalistic Allegory in Russian Literature. by Marina Aptekman ISBN 978-1-934843-38-3 250 pp. cloth $70.00 Publication Date: June, 2011 Focusing primarily on the close study of literary works presented in the broad cultural and historical context, Jacobs Ladderdiscusses the reflection of kabbalistic allegory in Russian literature and provides a detailed analysis of the evolution of the perception of Kabbalah in Russian consciousness. Aptekman investigates the questions of when, how and why Kabbalah has been used in Russian literary texts from Pre-Romanticism to Modernism and what particular role it played in the larger context of the Russian literary tradition. The correct understanding of this liaison helps the reader to clarify many enigmatic images in Russian literary works of the last two centuries and to understand the roots of a particular cultural falsification that played an important role in the anti-Semitic mythology of the twentieth century. Reviews: Marina Aptekman makes skillful use of rich and diverse source materials, some new and others interpreted in an original and innovative way. This is an important and thought-provoking contribution to the field of Russian-Jewish cultural relations. Mikhail Krutikov, associate professor of Slavic Languages and Literature, University of Michigan This book is a fascinating study of a largely unexplored subject--the role of Kabbalah in Russian literature from the mid 17th to the 20th century and the larger context in which literature developed. Focusing on images and allegories that derive, directly and indirectly, from Kabbalah, Aptekman shows how and why lt became an important element in mystical freemasonry, romanticism, and modernism. In addition, she limns the alternation between mystical and magical (or occult) interpretations of kabbalah and reveals how the occult interpretation came to be associated with black magic and, eventually, with the myth of a Judaeo-Masonic conspiracy.

[ha-Safran]: English language libraries in Jerusalem
Friends of libraries, Anglo-in Jerusalem: I received several responses regarding my previous question, posted on the Judaic librarian listserv, HASAFRAN, about English language libraries for the Anglo community in Jerusalem. I am wondering if those who are interested would want to meet for a conversation about this on Friday morning/early afternoon on July 29th around to talk libraries? (Exact time and place to be determined) ? Would it be worthwhile to talk about a project devoted to increasing visibility, use, services and resources for the English speaking community ? What are your thoughts and ideas? Please share this email with others who have a strong value about libraries and who may want to be a part of the conversation.
