Authentically Orthodox

Focusing on the concept of "lived religion," this book offers a fresh examination of Orthodox Judaism and its interactions with American culture. It delves into how Jewish law, youth culture, and gender shape the experiences of Orthodox communities, moving beyond traditional religious settings. Utilizing previously unpublished primary sources and archives, Zev Eleff presents a nuanced exploration of how tradition-bound faiths navigate their identities within the broader American landscape, challenging existing historical narratives.
