This Is the Plate: Utah Food Traditions
whimsically entitled this is the plate—an homage to Brigham Young's apocryphal words, “this is the place,” when he first saw the desert valley that would eventually become the state of Utah—this volume offers something for everyone. Editors Carol A. Edison, Eric A. Eliason, and Lynne S. McNeill have provided a well-integrated selection of essays, vignettes, and recipes (fifty-seven!) that showcase the historical, cultural, and religious foodways …

In other words, American Jews do not need Jewish criminals to signify their acclimation to American society. Accordi…
Doubting the Devout: The Ultra-Orthodox in the Jewish American Imagination
Before 1985, depictions of ultra-Orthodox Jews in popular American culture were rare, and if they did appear, in films such as Fiddler on the Roof or within the novels of Chaim Potok, they evoked a nostalgic vision of Old World tradition. Yet the ordination of women into positions of religious leadership and other controversial issues have sparked an increasingly visible and voluble culture war between America's ultra-Orthodox and non-Orthodox Je…
De la soupe au poulet pour nourrir l’âme des Noirs: La négociation d’une identité chez les Afro-américains convertis au judaïsme
The author examines African-American converts to Judaism and the delicate negotiation of an identity as both black and Jewish in the United States.
