Jewish Folk-Lore of the Middle Ages: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This short text is a twofold effort; first, a few examples of actual Jewish folklore dating to the Middle Ages, and second, some various analysis of the subject itself and the same related tales, from an anthropological viewpoint. It should be noted that claims of King Arthur being a Jewish tale appear to be related to the upsurging Judaist class consciousness of the late 19th century.

34 pages.

Contentions With God, A Study in Jewish Folklore: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This short booklet is filled with interesting Jewish folklore. Almost all of it involves Rabbinical councils condemning God for contradictions in Torah law, sometimes to the point of "suing" their deity on behalf of aggrieved plaintiffs (it isn't certain how they are reimbursed by the losing party!) A slightly humorous depiction of the Jewish god ensues, and on one occasion, even death itself is bested.
