{"product_id":"jewish-childhood-in-the-roman-hagith-sivan-9781107090170","title":"Jewish Childhood in the Roman World","description":"This is the first full treatment of Jewish childhood in the Roman world. It follows minors into the spaces where they lived, learned, played, slept, and died and examines the actions and interaction of children with other children, with close-kin adults, and with strangers, both inside and outside the home. A wide range of sources are used, from the rabbinic rules to the surviving painted representations of children from synagogues, and due attention is paid to broader theoretical issues and approaches. Hagith Sivan concludes with four beautifully reconstructed 'autobiographies' of specific children, from a boy living and dying in a desert cave during the Bar-Kokhba revolt to an Alexandrian girl forced to leave her home and wander through the Mediterranean in search of a respite from persecution. The book tackles the major questions of the relationship between Jewish childhood and Jewish identity which remain important to this day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hagith Sivan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107090172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107090170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 478\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.39w x 1.07d","brand":"Hagith Sivan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43924041269503,"sku":"9781107090170","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c5dcbc3d-5aac-40c8-9b52-c74c98911174.jpg?v=1681068130","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jewish-childhood-in-the-roman-hagith-sivan-9781107090170","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
