The Jews of Iraq: History, Traditions, and Memory of a Millennia-Old Presence in Mesopotamia - Couverture souple
Livre 11 sur 12: Memory of Jewish Communities
Synopsis
For more than two thousand years, Iraq—ancient Mesopotamia—was one of the great centers of Jewish life and learning.
From the Babylonian Exile after the destruction of the First Temple to the great academies of Sura and Pumbedita, where the Babylonian Talmud took shape, The Jews of Iraq traces an extraordinary history. It follows the communities of Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Hillah, and Kirkuk: their rabbis, merchants, physicians, artisans, scholars, and families, living at the crossroads of rivers, languages, and civilizations.
The book explores the richness of Iraqi Judaism: Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, and Judeo-Arabic; the academies and the Gaonim; religious life, commerce, education, music, cuisine, and family traditions. It also examines the upheavals of the twentieth century—the Farhud of 1941, growing restrictions, the mass departures of the 1950s, and Operation Ezra and Nehemiah.
More than a story of exile, The Jews of Iraq is the story of a founding heritage that endures in prayer, melody, scholarship, family memory, and the diasporas of Israel, Europe, and the Americas.
A compelling introduction to Jewish history, Iraqi history, the Babylonian Talmud, and the living memory of a foundational community.
