The Woman From The Second Floor

The Woman From The Second Floor

Yael Kapitolnik

nidottu
My story is a dream, a dream that came true against all odds and proved that dreams have no age nor boundaries. This book will tell my life story, my special story of difficulties, coping, sadness, joy and hope and, above all - of fulfillment. It's a story about a poor childhood within an interracial family, a story about a dream I held for sixty years during my difficult days - a dream that always remained behind the scenes, until it came true and proved that faith can make even the impossible achievable. Through my personal experiences I bring you with love to the province of my childhood, in Neve-Tzedek in Tel Aviv, the night of the establishment of the state of Israel; and embark on a journey from the tastes of the market, to the aroma burner, to the sound of the muezzin, to the grouping of the cultures, to a life of loyalty, betrayal and love - with optimism as a way of life. I hope you find in this book what I have found in my life: the humor and sadness, the difficulty and beauty, hope and faith, the dream and the fulfillment.

Sacrifice and Regeneration

Sacrifice and Regeneration

Yael Mabat

University of Nebraska Press
2022
sidottu
At the dawn of the twentieth century, while Lima’s aristocrats hotly debated the future of a nation filled with “Indians,” thousands of Aymara and Quechua Indians left the pews of the Catholic Church and were baptized into Seventh-day Adventism. One of the most staggering Christian phenomena of our time, the mass conversion from Catholicism to various forms of Protestantism in Latin America was so successful that Catholic contemporaries became extremely anxious on noticing that parts of the Indigenous population in the Andean plateau had joined a Protestant church. In Sacrifice and Regeneration Yael Mabat focuses on the extraordinary success of Seventh-day Adventism in the Andean highlands at the beginning of the twentieth century and sheds light on the historical trajectories of Protestantism in Latin America. By approaching the religious conversion among Indigenous populations in the Andes as a multifaceted and dynamic interaction between converts, missionaries, and their social settings and networks, Mabat demonstrates how the religious and spiritual needs of converts also brought salvation to the missionaries. Conversion had important ramifications on the way social, political, and economic institutions on the local and national level functioned. At the same time, socioeconomic currents had both short-term and long-term impacts on idiosyncratic religious practices and beliefs that both accelerated and impeded religious change. Mabat’s innovative historical perspective on religious transformation allows us to better comprehend the complex and often contradictory way in which Protestantism took shape in Latin America.

Historical Continuity in the Emergence of Modern Hebrew

Historical Continuity in the Emergence of Modern Hebrew

Yael Reshef

Lexington Books
2019
sidottu
Historical Continuity in the Emergence of Modern Hebrew offers a new perspective on the emergence processes of Modern Hebrew and its relationship to earlier forms of Hebrew. Based on a textual examination of select case studies of language use throughout the modernization of Hebrew, this book shows that due to the unconventional sociolinguistic circumstances in the budding speech community, linguistic processes did not necessarily evolve in a linear manner, blurring the distinction between true and apparent historical continuity. The emergent language’s standardization involved the restructuring of linguistic habits that had initially taken root among the first speakers, often leading to a retreat from early contact-induced or non-classical phenomena. Yael Reshef demonstrates that as a result, superficial similarity to earlier forms of Hebrew did not necessarily stem from continuity, and deviation from canonical Hebrew features does not necessarily stem from change.

The Book of Values: An Inspirational Guide to Our Moral Dilemmas

The Book of Values: An Inspirational Guide to Our Moral Dilemmas

Yael Eylat-Tanaka

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform

How do you define morality? More importantly, is morality relevant in our secular, harried lives? Morality has little to do with religion or church or strict requirements for a so-called "clean" life; morality is the glue that binds us all as a unified community; it is the social grease that enhances our relationships with each other, and through those relationships permits us to live peacefully, to give of ourselves, and by extension, enhance our own lives.

Living Emergency

Living Emergency

Yael Berda

Stanford University Press
2017
pokkari
In 1991, the Israeli government introduced emergency legislation canceling the general exit permit that allowed Palestinians to enter Israel. The directive, effective for one year, has been reissued annually ever since, turning the Occupied Territories into a closed military zone. Today, Israel's permit regime for Palestinians is one of the world's most extreme and complex apparatuses for population management. Yael Berda worked as a human rights lawyer in Jerusalem and represented more than two hundred Palestinian clients trying to obtain labor permits to enter Israel from the West Bank. With Living Emergency, she brings readers inside the permit regime, offering a first-hand account of how the Israeli secret service, government, and military civil administration control the Palestinian population. Through interviews with Palestinian laborers and their families, conversations with Israeli clerks and officials, and research into the archives and correspondence of governmental organizations, Berda reconstructs the institutional framework of the labyrinthine permit regime, illuminating both its overarching principles and its administrative practices. In an age where terrorism, crime, and immigration are perceived as intertwined security threats, she reveals how the Israeli example informs global homeland security and border control practices, creating a living emergency for targeted populations worldwide.

Desert in the Promised Land

Desert in the Promised Land

Yael Zerubavel

Stanford University Press
2018
sidottu
At once an ecological phenomenon and a cultural construction, the desert has varied associations within Zionist and Israeli culture. In the Judaic textual tradition, it evokes exile and punishment, yet is also a site for origin myths, the divine presence, and sanctity. Secular Zionism developed its own spin on the duality of the desert as the romantic site of Jews' biblical roots that inspired the Hebrew culture, and as the barren land outside the Jewish settlements in Palestine, featuring them as an oasis of order and technological progress within a symbolic desert. Yael Zerubavel tells the story of the desert from the early twentieth century to the present, shedding light on romantic-mythical associations, settlement and security concerns, environmental sympathies, and the commodifying tourist gaze. Drawing on literary narratives, educational texts, newspaper articles, tourist materials, films, popular songs, posters, photographs, and cartoons, Zerubavel reveals the complexities and contradictions that mark Israeli society's semiotics of space in relation to the Middle East, and the central role of the "besieged island" trope in Israeli culture and politics.
