A propos de cet article

Content Description. Juggling Identities: Identity and Authenticity Among the Crypto-Jews by Seth D. Kunin. Columbia University Press, New York, 2009. First edition, first printing. In this scholarly examination of Crypto-Jewish identity in the American Southwest, anthropologist Seth D. Kunin explores the history, religious practices, cultural traditions, and complex questions of identity surrounding descendants of Jews who converted to Christianity in Spain but maintained elements of their Jewish heritage. Drawing extensively on ethnographic research among Crypto-Jewish communities in New Mexico, Kunin examines competing interpretations of the authenticity of Crypto-Jewish ancestry and religious traditions. He considers how family memories, inherited customs, religious rituals, and community relationships contribute to the construction and preservation of identity across generations. Particular attention is devoted to the relationship between historical evidence and contemporary understandings of Jewish identity, including the ways individuals and families interpret traditions whose origins may have become obscured over time. The volume includes discussions of cultural diversity, competing arguments concerning the authenticity of Crypto-Judaism in New Mexico, types of Crypto-Jewish identity, the role of memory and religious practice, and postmodern interpretations of identity. An important interdisciplinary contribution to Jewish studies, cultural anthropology, religious history, ethnic identity, and the history of New Mexico and the American Southwest. Includes scholarly notes, bibliography, and index. The subject matter and chapter coverage are corroborated by the book's bibliographic records and published synopsis.
