    Series Statement: The Jewish role in American life
    Parallel Title: Print version From Shtetl to Stardom, Jews and Hollywood
    Keywords: Motion picture industry History ; Television broadcasting History ; Jews in the motion picture industry ; Jews in television broadcasting ; Electronic books ; USA ; Juden ; Filmwirtschaft
    Abstract: The outsized influence of Jews in American entertainment from the early days of Hollywood to the present has proved an endlessly fascinating and controversial topic, for Jews and non-Jews alike. From Shtetl to Stardom: Jews and Hollywood takes an exciting and innovative approach to this rich and complex material. Exploring the subject from a scholarly perspective as well as up close and personal, the book combines historical and theoretical analysis by leading academics in the field with inside information from prominent entertainment professionals. Essays range from Vincent Brook’s survey of the stubbornly persistent canard of Jewish industry “control” to Lawrence Baron and Joel Rosenberg’s panel presentations on the recent brouhaha over Ben Urwand’s book alleging collaboration between Hollywood and Hitler. Case studies by Howard Rodman and Joshua Louis Moss examine a key Coen brothers' film A Serious Man (Rodman) and Jill Soloway’s groundbreaking television series Transparent (Moss)

The volume examines right and left wing French negationism, post-Communist Holocaust deniers in Eastern-Europe, the spread of denial to Australia, Canada, South-Africa and even to Japan.

    Keywords: History of contemporary events ; Theology, Doctrinal ; History of Biblical events ; Geography ; Electronic books ; Gelobtes Land ; Christentum ; Interreligiöser Dialog ; Judentum
    Abstract: This unique book offers a Catholic view of the Holy Land in the debate that rages among Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Alain Marchadour and David Neuhaus, two biblical scholars and priests living in Jerusalem, clearly analyze the Promised Land?as concept, history, and contested terrain?in Catholic teaching and doctrine. They offer an analytical reading of the entire Christian Bible (Old and New Testaments) with reference to the idea of the Land promised by God. They explore early and medieval attitudes, especially with regard to the Holy Places and the Jewish people. Moving carefully to the present day, they focus on anti-Semitism, the tragedy of the Shoah, Western colonialism in the Middle East, the creation of the State of Israel, and the birth of the Palestinian refugee problem as they examine Catholic reactions to the tumultuous events of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, particularly the renewal of Catholic thought in the aftermath of the Second Vatican Council
    Abstract: The land in the Old Testament -- The land in the New Testament -- Visiting the land -- A Christian reading of the land until Vatican II -- Shaking up a familiar landscape -- Traditional Christian attachment to the land -- The interpretation of the Bible -- Interreligious dialogue -- Peace and justice -- Conclusion: holy lands: yesterday and today
