Shmiot Fugue. Neomysticism in the Voices of Three Jewish-Mexican Women Writers

      Аннотация: SHMIOT FUGUE: NEOMYSTICISM IN THE VOICES OF THREE JEWISH-MEXICAN WOMEN WRITERS integrates extensive research, teaching and publication in the fields of both religious studies and literary theory to produce an interdisciplinary monograph which considers a selection of Jewish-Mexican narrative fiction. The range of thought and experience creatively expressed through these novels and short stories has drawn, in significant ways, on medieval legends and texts to develop themes of contemporary—thus neo—mysticism. Close readings of works by Angelina Mu?iz-Huberman, Esther Seligson, and Sabina Berman provide rich material, inviting us to listen closely to the variations that deepen our understanding of the subject of neomysticism.
