520 |a "The Continuum Companion to Jewish Studies is a comprehensive reference guide, providing an overview of Jewish Studies as it has developed as an academic sub-discipline. This volume will survey the development and current state of research in the broad field of Jewish Studies - focusing on methodologies, current themes, and varieties of source materials available. Significantly, the volume also includes eleven essays from internationallly renowned scholars that provide an important and useful overview of Jewish history and the development of Judaism, and explore central themes in Jewish Studies that cut across historical periods and offer important opportunities to track significant developments across Jewish experiences. In addition to an annotated bibliography to help orient students and researchers, the volume includes a series of indispensable research tools, including a chronology, maps, and an extensive glossary of key terms and concepts necessary as one engages various fields within Jewish Studies. This is the essential reference guide for anyone working in this field"--  |c Provided by publisher.
