Prof. Jonathan Sarna returns to AJU, marking the upcoming release of Coming to Terms with America: Essays on Jewish History, Religion and Culture. Join him as he explores how Jews endeavor to be both Jewish and American at once, from the American Revolution to today.
This collection of essays investigates the many facets of the Jewish-American encounter—what Jews have borrowed from their surroundings, what they have resisted, what they have synthesized, and what they have subverted. Originally written over the span of forty years, many of these essays are considered classics in the field, and several remain fixtures of American Jewish history syllabi. Together, these essays—newly updated for this volume—cull the finest thinking of one of American Jewry’s finest historians.
