Yisrael Ba-amim, by Isaac F. Baer
- Abstract
Professor Baer of the Hebrew University, the distinguished medievalist and authority on Spain and Spanish Jewry, now is chiefly interested in early Rabbinic Judaism and Christianity. Yisrael ba-amim, based on his lectures to undergraduates, is paralleled by a series of studies that have been appearing in the Historical Society of Israel’s quarterly Zion, of which he is an editor. It is a remarkable document, whether as a work of scholarship about the past or as a transparent prescription for the right nurture of the Israeli ethos in the present and future. It is also well printed, written in straightforward Hebrew, and equipped with a solid technical apparatus.
