Marriage Rituals Italian Style: A Historical Anthropological Perspective on Early Modern Italian Jews is the first comprehensive attempt to present the wealth of primary documents relating to marriage rituals in Jewish Italian communities - responsa, private letters, court protocols, defamating books, love stories, material objects - and place them in historical context. The book traces the chronological course of different phases of marriage (matchmaking, betrothal, the wedding day), and also adopts a thematic perspective. Marriage rituals mirror key issues in local Jewish culture: family life, gender, the youth sub-culture, sexuality, the uses of property, and the honor ethos. Jewish marriage rituals in Italy are revealed as surprisingly similar to those of their Catholic neighbors, and undergo similar change process.

The double codes of law composed by R. Joseph Karo during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries mark a watershed in the history of Jewish Halakhah (law). No further legal project was suggested in later generations. The books suggest a new reading beyond the aspects of positive law. R. Joseph Karo continued centuries-long traditions of Jewish erudition, in tandem with responding to global changes in history of law and legality both in Europe, and mainly in the Ottoman Empire. It is a global reading of Jewish Halakhah and modernization of Jewish culture in general.

Something crucial and quite unprecedented happened to kabbalah in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Though it had previously been considered a highly secretive and esoteric tradition, its practitioners began to spread its doctrines throughout the Jewish world with missionary zeal. Their goal was ambitious: no less than the remodelling of the religious and ethical attitudes of the entire Jewish population, a reformation of Judaism. Few aspects of Jewish life and religious practice were not changed as a result of the spread of kabbalah.These innovations originated mainly in the city of Safed in Galilee. They were introduced by kabbalistic adepts, but would not have gained broad acceptance if they had not made sense to people in terms of their everyday lives. The kabbalistic corpus that emerged should thus be interpreted not just as the elaboration of a secretive literary tradition, but as a response to the needs of Jewish society in its manifest historical context. In addition, Roni Weinstein argues, these kabbalistic innovations were partly a response to changes in the Catholic world-view, revealing an intimate link with Counter-Reformation Catholicism that is explored here for the first time. The religious and political changes taking place in contemporary Ottoman settings also contributed to these changes.The effect of these developments on Jewish culture was nothing short of revolutionary, deeply affecting people's lives at the time and also laying the foundations for change in future generations. Yet they were not presented as revolutionary: the early modern kabbalists understood that they would only succeed in spreading their message if they presented their doctrines as the natural continuation of what went before.Weinstein's sociological reading of mystical texts encompasses a number of methodological innovations, including the need to consider the impact of the non-Jewish environment in the fashioning of Jewish texts. He sees the emergence of 'Jewish modernity' as the result of developments that were intrinsically Jewish rather than as a response to outside influences during the Enlightenment; controversially, he therefore places its origins in the Mediterranean world of the late sixteenth century rather than in eighteenth-century Berlin. His argument is based on a wide range of Jewish sources-including theological tracts, kabbalistic and ethical literature, hagiographies, mystical diaries, halakhic rulings and responsa, and community and confraternal regulations-as well as the testimonies non-Jewish travellers, and Catholic religious literature.This stimulating new reading of the development of kabbalistic texts and practices opens a new chapter in the understanding of Jewish modernity.The Hebrew edition of this book was awarded the Goren-Gottstein Prize for the Best Book in Jewish Thought 2010-2012.

This book provides the first publication of the tract Tiferet Bahurim (The Glory of Youth) which was written in the mid-seventeenth century by R. Pinhas Barukh ben Pelatiyah Monselic in Ferrara, Italy. The tract was written as a guide for young men about to marry regarding their family life and their sexual deportment. By analyzing the Tiferet Bahurim Roni Weinstein addresses the following questions: What was the source of the growing interest in sexuality, and controlling juvenile sexuality? How is this tract related to centuries-old Jewish ethical literature, as well as literature in contemporary Catholic Italy? Is the Tiferet Bahurim part of the religious and cultural fermentation of the Counter-Reformation? Finally, did Jewish mysticism and pietism of Kabbalah tradition play a role in the composition of this tract?

Passer devant un juge pour régler un conflit de couple est aujourd’hui chose banale. Mais banal ne veut pas dire récent. Le phénomène a une longue histoire, retracée ici dans le cadre de l’Europe occidentale préindustrielle, des Pays-Bas à l’Espagne et à l’Italie, de la France à la Roumanie, sans négliger les évolutions de la diaspora juive installée au sein de la société chrétienne. Partout, les infractions possibles à la loi qui définit le mariage se durcissent et les procès se multiplient devant les tribunaux laïques ou ecclésiastiques. Rapts, viols, mariages clandestins, adultères et toutes les formes de violences conjugales sont autant de chefs d’accusation maniés par la justice, mais le plus souvent à la demande du couple ou de sa parenté. La question est bien de savoir comment et pourquoi la justice a pu être utilisée, voire instrumentalisée comme une arme dans les querelles matrimoniales, et quel regard a pu être porté sur ces conflits où s’est en particulier joué le sort des femmes.

Christiane Klapisch-Zuber n’a sans doute pas réalisé tous ses rêves d’adolescente - peindre comme Gauguin ou étudier l’art italien du Quattrocento - mais en s’orientant vers une carrière d’historienne, elle est devenue une spécialiste mondialement reconnue de la société florentine des xive-xvie siècles. Depuis une quarantaine d’années, en mettant à profit les ressources documentaires exceptionnelles de la Toscane et en intégrant des approches et des méthodes complémentaires comme l’enquête collective et l’histoire sérielle, la démographie et l’anthropologie historiques, l’histoire de la famille et du genre, elle s’est intéressée à des objets aussi variés que les masses, les structures familiales et le cycle de développement domestique, les différentes dimensions de la parenté, les normes, les rituels et les pratiques au quotidien, les signes et les enjeux de la mémoire familiale ou la place des femmes dans l’espace public et privé. Son œuvre importante a en particulier mis en évidence un paradoxe florentin : pôle urbain spécialement développé du point de vue de la culture matérielle, figurative, politique et intellectuelle, Florence a simultanément relégué ses femmes de chair et d’os dans un confinement spatial, des capacités juridiques limitées et des rôles économiques marginaux. Plus qu’un paradigme, la cité toscane constitue ainsi pour Christiane Klapisch-Zuber un point de référence extrême dans une perspective comparatiste, qu’elle a constamment adoptée, à travers sa formation culturelle, son enseignement et ses échanges professionnels. Cet ouvrage collectif qui veut lui rendre hommage lui laisse d’abord la parole pour retracer son parcours. Il relit ensuite quelques thèmes essentiels de son œuvre et présente enfin des recherches qu’elle a contribué à inspirer et à encourager dans le champ de l’histoire sociale et culturelle et de l’histoire de l’art.
