Judaic Nature of Israeli Theatre
A Search for Identity
Introduction
Theatre has, since the time of the Jewish Enlightenment, served the secular community in its conflict with the religious.
Scope of the Book
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.
Specific Studies
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.
