"A girl grows up to be an accomplished artist in this book about the small things that lead to a rich and fulfilling life."--
Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav (1772-1810) is widely considered to be one of the foremost visionary storytellers of the Hasidic movement. Howard Schwartz has compiled the most extensive collection of Nachman's stories in English yet. In addition to his famous Thirteen Tales, Schwartz includes here many stories, parables, dreams, and folktales.
Noted folklorist Howard Schwartz retells 12 Jewish tales from around the world. Each tale combines elements of magic with a link to a Jewish holiday, giving new perspectives on Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Hanukkah, Purim, and Passover - plus Shabbat, the weekly Sabbath.
In this collection of fifteen classic Jewish folktales, the authors share some of the richest stories of Jewish tradition from countries the world over, including France, Turkey, Israel, Yemen, Egypt, and Iraq, thus opening up new worlds for young readers. Each tale, magnificently illustrated with a pen-and-ink drawing, reveals a specific Jewish value handed down from one generation to the next.
Robert G. Gregory challenges the apparent assumption that non-Western peoples lack a significant indigenous philanthropic culture
The Revolt of the Primitive explores the psychological dynamics of political correctness and gender warfare
Gregory focuses on the large South Asian community in East Africa, he relates how, over a century, they built a philanthropic culture of great magnitude, and how it finally collapsed under the ascendency of increasing state regulation and policies directed against non-African communities
This work explores the psychological dynamics of political correctness and gender warfare. It argues that perceptions of men as abusers, sexual predators, and deadbeat dads have become firmly entrenched in our culture due to fantasy rather than solid, objective facts.
