Full Description
The second volume of Mizrekh continues with a series dedicated to Jewish research in the Far East - Russia, Japan, China, and other countries of the region. The monographs in English, Russian, Hebrew and Yiddish focus here on the religious-philosophical aspects of the dealings of Jews with the reality in the Far East, as well as issues relating to their identity in out-of-the-ordinary circumstances.
