Recenzii

"This excellent collection reflects the wide research interests of Prof. Seltzer, among which are modern Jewish life and identity, American Jewry and Jewish historiography. Articles include such subjects as language acquisition as a criterion of modernization in East Central Europe, lay and rabbinic conflict in mid-nineteenth century American Jewry, and the counter-enlightenment in Jamaica...Recommended for all academic collections in Jewish studies. --Jim Rosenbloom, Brandeis University, AJL Reviews, Vol V, No.4
