{"product_id":"strands-of-the-cable-daniel-walden-9780820417011","title":"Strands of the Cable: The Place of the Past in Jewish American Women's Writing","description":"This study discusses a diverse selection of Jewish women writers from the immigrants to the most contemporary, all of whom are concerned with issues of identity and many of whom have been critically neglected until now. The various components of identity - woman, American, Jew - all make separate claims on consciousness. Each, alone, is potentially definitive. These women look to the past, to history and tradition, to determine the present. All view themselves as  strands of the cable  that binds old to new. Some see the need to strengthen the link, others to break it. Identity is defined, significantly, by how that connection is understood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Walden,Ellen Serlen Uffen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820417017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820417011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Daniel Walden","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48453410259199,"sku":"9780820417011","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a1e42cce-8d54-440d-a492-36dbb55856b9.jpg?v=1777300067","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/strands-of-the-cable-daniel-walden-9780820417011","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
