[ha-Safran] The Israeli Sovereign (Magnes press)
Hello We would like to introduce a book recently published by the Hebrew University Magnes press in Jerusalem: The Israeli Sovereign The Novel and the Discourse 1967-1973 By Shimrit Peled http://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Shimrit+Peled.aspx?name=Shimrit+Pel ed The book The Israeli Sovereign: The Novel and the Discourse 1967 - 1973 explores Israeli sovereignty, nationality and space as represented and constructed in a range of Israeli novels published between 1967 and 1973, in their historical and geographical context and in light of the public discourse between the 1967 and 1973 wars. The research aims to characterize the Israeli sovereign subject and Israeli space represented and constructed in literature, in the context of the public discourse of the period. Some of the questions the study deals with are: What kind of Israeli subject emerges from the novels of the period? What kind of Israeli space is created in these texts? What is the relation between that space and the various points of view that were prominent in Israeli discourse at the time? These issues and others are discussed in light of the historical spatial situation of occupation and massive territorial expansion.

[ha-Safran] Digital Humanities in Jewish Studies - Roundtable Proceedings
Hello all, I know that not everyone was able to make it to Las Vegas at the end of June, and not everyone who came to the AJL conference was able to make it to the DH roundtable. For those who are interested, I have copied the email (edited slightly to clarify certain things and to include later happenings) that I sent to members of the roundtable following the conference. It'll be a little difficult to summarize the roundtable in a formal way for the AJL Proceedings so consider this the proceedings for that session. If there are any questions, please feel free to be in touch. Best, Michelle --- Thank you all for coming to the session. It was a lively conversation, and certainly needs to continue, and so I wanted to begin right away. 1. I have created a Google Group ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/js-librarians-in-dh) to better manage discussions. The group works the same way as Hasafran - once you're signed up, you can email js-librarians-in...@googlegroups.com, which will send your emials to the entire list. You can also choose how you receive the emails (digest, individual emails, etc.). Note that you do not need a gmail account to join the Google Group. 2. The short link to the Contacts list (the list that went around the room identifying people with an interest in DH and Jewish Studies) is bit.ly/DHJewish. Please feel free to forward this list around and add names to it! 3. The spreadsheet that I created to catalog various projects (beginning with the ones listed on jewishcommons.org) can be found at bit.ly/JewishDHProjects. Please DO add more resources to the list, although I would request at this point that nobody change the general format of it. Additionally, if you have comments/questions on the set-up, please, start a conversation with the people on this list, and we can change it it makes sense! Again, feel free to distribute this list. 4. A smaller group of us have gotten together to formalize what AJL's role (and by extension, our role as Judaica Librarians) is in supporting digital humanities in Jewish Studies. 5. For interested parties, I have created a small (for now) Twitter list of people/projects in DH Jewish Studies (#DHJewish). You can find it here: https://twitter.com/hchesner/lists/dh-jewish-studies Please let me know if you know of others that should be on this list. __ Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) == Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: Hasafran@lists.service.ohio-state.edu To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: galro...@osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.service.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html Earlier Listserver: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org -- Hasafran mailing list Hasafran@lists.service.ohio-state.edu https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran
