[ha-Safran] Israeli Movie Question

[Stacy Katz]

Hi all,

I have a challenge that I was hoping you might be able to help think through. 
At my school, the Hebrew Department uses Israeli movies as one pedagogical tool 
for learning the language. We have a server that the movies are uploaded to and 
students can watch the movies from the library or computer lab. The server is 
only accessible to students while they are at school, and it is how we comply 
with copyright for these movies. Next year, all students will be bringing their 
own laptops to school and we would like students to be able to watch these 
Israeli movies from their own laptops.

Do any of  you know of a place that we could upload movies and have students 
watch on their own devices and still be in copyright or of a Netflix like 
service for Israeli movies?

Thanks in advance,

Stacy Katz

[ha-Safran] The Halakhah as an Event

[Celestina Levant]

Hello
We would like to introduce a new book published by the Hebrew university Magnes 
press:


The Halakhah as an Event
Edited by: Avinoam 
Rosenak

The Halakha is not just a body of literature; it is also a cultural event. It 
follows then that the philosophy of Halakha must address the happening of the 
Halakha. Surprisingly, till now philosophers of Halakha have not addressed this 
dimension of the event or the happening of the Halakha. The articles in this 
book are an attempt at facing this challenge. But this is not simple because 
herein lies a paradox. If the event or the happening is something that lies 
outside the confines of what is captured in the written word, the effort to 
write about it is one that must take us on a fascinating journey between what 
is possible and what perhaps is not.
What is the nature of the Halakha as an event? What is the knowledge contained 
in this dimension of the Halakha that defies conceptualization in the written 
word? How does the insight that the Halakha is principally an event 
dramatically affect the philosophy of the Halakha?
 As we have said, philosophers of the Halakha have not addressed this question 
before and the authors in this collection - scholars and researchers from a 
wide range of fields - are all facing it for the first time bringing to it a 
wide range of tools from fields as varied as philosophy, Jewish thought, 
performance, cinema, group dynamics, cognition, gender studies and more. 
Together they offer us a new discourse and framework for conceptualizing the 
philosophy of the Halakha.
