Can We-In The Light Of Postmodernist Thought-Speak Of A Continuous, Coherent Jewish People, With A Distinct Culture And History? What In Fact Is Jewish Cultural History, And How Can It Be Written? How Does Gender Transform The Jewish Historical Narrative? How Does Jewish History Fit Into The Multicultural Paradigm? Has Jewish History Entered A Postmodern Phase? How Can Jewish History Utilize The Methodologies Of Other Disciplines To Accomplish Its Task? All These Are Questions That Jewish Historians Need To Think About If Their Work Is To Be Taken Seriously By Mainstream Historians And Intellectuals, Or Indeed By Educated Jews Interested In Understanding Their Own Cultural And Historical Past While Engaging With The Questions Raised By Postmodernists, The Author Adopts A Critical Stance Towards Their Work His Basic Claim Is That It Is Possible To Incorporate, Judiciously, Postmodern Innovations Into Historical Scholarship That Is Still Based On Documentary Research And Critical Analysis The Resulting Endeavor Might Be Termed 'A Reformed Positivism' Rosman Presents A Concentrated, Coherent, Cogent Argument As To What Considerations Must Be Brought To Bear On The Writing Of Jewish History Today By Highlighting In One Book The Issues Raised By Postmodernism, How Jewish Is Jewish History?
