Gender and Dialogue in the Rabbinic Prism

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring gender dynamics within Talmudic texts, the author challenges the notion of Judaism as merely a legal framework. He posits that the Talmud emphasizes inner spiritual development, highlighting humility and ego refinement. This perspective invites a deeper examination of how women are portrayed, often positioned as embodiments of humility and kindness, contrasting with the male scholars who exhibit arrogance. The work prompts reflection on the treatment of the Other, particularly women, within these ancient narratives.
