Book info: The Judaic Nature of Israeli Theatre: A Search for Identity (Contemporary Theatre Studies) (Hardcover, 184 pages) – Routledge, 2000. Language: English.
Theatre has, since the time of the Jewish Enlightenment, served the secular community in its conflict with the religious. This book surveys the secular-religious rift and then describes the enhanced concern of the secular community in Israel for its own Jewishness and its expression in the theatre - especially following the 1967 War. It then moves on to a specific study of the play Bruira and finally reviews the phenomenon of the return to Orthodox Judaism by secular individuals. Editorial Reviews Review"A new cultural phenomenon....The book's glossary is a vital asset to this 'search for identity' as are its bibliography and index."
