Humanist Readings in Jewish
Folklore
by Bennett Muraskin
A collection of more than 120 Jewish folktales, selected with an eye to those

The tales reflect the side of Jewish tradition that values freedom of thought,
social justice, egalitarianism, and respect for the "other." Offering
an introduction, commentary, and bibliography, this book explores the pre-modern
roots of Jewish humanism. $20.00 |
