Overview
Spanning all areas of Humanities and Social Sciences and including interdisciplinary and comparative approaches, the book series Research in Latin American Jewish Studies (RLAJS) aims to push the boundaries of Jewish studies in general and Latin American Jewish studies in particular. It emphasizes the development of innovative methodologies while also mobilizing the richness of Jewish thought as a wellspring for a new epistemology. This approach not only will help grasp current phenomena but also shed light on the development and historical significance of Jewish cultures in Latin America – including its islands and the Caribbean – and their interaction with the pre-colonial and colonial languages of the continent at an age when Jewish languages are fighting against decay and agony. The Jewish presence in Latin America has taken myriad forms – political, cultural, linguistic, aesthetic, literary, and scientific – but has often been viewed through ethnic, identity, and representation lenses. The series seeks to offer a renewed understanding of Jewish history, practice, and culture in Latin America and explore their connections to other regions worldwide.
