Excerpts from thousands of primary sources reflecting Jewish creativity, diversity, and culture world-wide are shared at the Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization, which will, when all volumes are complete, span biblical times to the 21st century. Historian Deborah Dash Moore is the editor in chief of this growing collection, curated by leading Jewish Studies scholars and offering unprecedented selections from original sources, many translated into English for the first time. The sacred and secular are side by side here, for readers, researchers, educators, scholars, students, anyone interested in discovering Jewish history, religious and political writing, art, cultural artifacts and more. The print version, such as Volume 6: Confronting Modernity, 1750–1880, edited by Elisheva Carlebach, and Volume 10: Late Twentieth Century, 1973–2005, edited by Deborah Dash Moore and Nurith Gertz, is available for purchase, while the digital version offers free access to anyone who registers.
