Sex: Jewish Positions - Paperback
by Miriam Goldmann (Editor), Joanne Rosenthal (Editor), Titia Zoeter (Editor)
An exploration of sexuality in Judaism, from ultra-Orthodox to secular.
Sensuous, bold, and topical, this volume studies the entire spectrum of Jewish attitudes to sexuality. In doing so it examines widely held and contradictory stereotypes, according to which Judaism encounters sexuality either in a highly positive manner or with exceptionally strict rules and restrictions. This significant volume takes up central aspects of sexuality in Judaism and provides a comprehensive insight on topics such as Rabbinic regulations and the history of sexuality in Judaism; how ultra-Orthodox women deal with the strict regulations relating to intimacy; sexuality in films and art; and the experience of a Jewish couple and sexual therapist. Accompanied by eighty images, this interdisciplinary overview informs and offers surprises.Miriam Goldmann is exhibition curator at the Jewish Museum Berlin. Joanne Rosenthal is a freelance curator based in the UK. Titia Zoeter is a curator and exhibition maker at the Joods Museum Amsterdam.
