A new Jewish culture, richly endowed and interdisciplinary, has come into being in the past two centuries, one that is of a mainly modern and secular nature. This is a cultural creation that cannot be limited to a single definition, and its Jewish sources of inspiration, the wealth of non-Jewish culture, and the Israeli experience meet in it on a broad interface.
In this volume we have collected eight articles from the New Jewish Time Hebrew Encyclopedia, along with an opening article, originally given as a speech in the year 2000 by Mr. Felix Posen, the founder and president of the Posen Foundation, in which he sets out his conception of “Judaism as Culture.”
