Omschrijving
A 3,000-Year History of the Jewish People
By Ivo Vichev
A sweeping, illuminating history that traces the improbable 3,000-year epic of a people defined by covenant, crisis, and relentless continuity.
The story of the Jewish people is a drama of unmatched scope—a civilization shaped by prophecy and politics, exile and return, survival and renewal. In this monumental work, historian Ivo Vichev transcends the boundaries of unreserved celebration and unremitting critique to offer a fresh, scrupulously researched account of one of the world's most enduring sagas.
Moving beyond traditional narratives, Vichev draws on the latest archaeological discoveries, the Amarna Letters, the Cairo Geniza, and the deep scholarship of Israeli, Palestinian, and Western historians. He reveals a history built not on simple conquest, but on a tenacious negotiation between ideals and reality, prophecy and power.
Beginning in the Late Bronze Age Canaanite world and spanning 16 chapters to the complexities of the 21st century, Vichev explores:
How a fragmented group of Iron Age villagers emerged to forge the concept of ethical monotheism. The catastrophic shifts from the destruction of the Second Temple (70 CE) to the global explosion of the Diaspora. The parallel worlds of the Golden Age of Spain and the rise of Ashkenazi culture in Europe. The enduring power of texts and traditions that allowed communities to survive millennia of displacement, culminating in the rebirth of the modern state.From the wisdom of the early rabbis to the debates of the contemporary moment—from shtetl to screen, from ashes to archive—Vichev's history is a definitive journey through a tradition that endures because it can be re-inhabited by each generation without being reinvented from nothing.
This is not just a history of survival; it is a profound testament to the resilience of a people, a culture, and a set of ideas that continue to shape the world.
