{"product_id":"time-and-the-life-cycle-nissan-rubin-9781934843079","title":"Time and the Life Cycle in Talmud and Midrash. Socio-Anthropological Perspectives","description":"Focusing on the concepts of time and the life cycle, this collection of articles examines Jewish life in the Talmudic period through the lens of Jewish law and custom of the time. The essays are the work of Nissan Rubin (one of them written in collaboration with Admiel Kosman) and come together to present the cultural perspective of the sages and scholars who produced the stepping-stones of Jewish life and custom. By using a structural approach, Rubin is able to identify processes of long-term change in a society that remains largely traditional and stable. Symbolic analysis supplies an additional dimension to these studies, enabling the reader to experience the cultural subtexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nissan Rubin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934843075\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934843079\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Studies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009 pg. 21","brand":"Nissan Rubin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088966496511,"sku":"9781934843079","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f4f1a52f-9daa-4eed-b2ab-e59f951d3d2d.jpg?v=1769107544","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/time-and-the-life-cycle-nissan-rubin-9781934843079","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
