A rich celebration of Hanukkah, featuring centuries of extraordinary art and artifacts. One of the most joyous weeks in the Jewish year is when families gather for eight evenings to celebrate the festival of Hanukkah. Jews the world over mark this holiday of freedom with the lighting of the Hanukkah menorah, while children spin a dreidel and eat sufganiyot and potato latkes. Presents are exchanged, and the story of Hanukkah is retold through songs and prayers. The Art of Hanukkah, through its selection of forty-eight masterpieces of holiday ceremonial and fine art, tells the story of the desecration of the holy Temple, its subsequent reclaiming and rededication, and the miracle of the single, tiny cruse of oil that continued to provide light for eight days. From individual oil lamps to medieval creations, through the sumptuous flourishes of Baroque decorations to contemporary times, these Hanukkah menorahs reflect the adaptability of Jewish culture throughout the Diaspora. Menorahs, paintings, dreidels—all the wonderful elements of the celebration of Hanukkah from around the world and throughout the centuries have been brought together in this one marvelous book. Clear, insightful, and thought-provoking commentaries make this book a perfect complement to the holiday. 一个丰富的光明节庆典,展示了几个世纪的非凡艺术和文物。犹太人一年中最快乐的一周是家庭聚会的八个晚上,庆祝光明节。世界各地的犹太人用点燃的光明节烛台来庆祝这个自由的节日,而孩子们则旋转陀螺,吃苏夫根尼约和土豆煎饼。礼物被交换,光明节的故事通过歌曲和祈祷被复述。《光明节的艺术》精选了四十八件节日礼仪和美术杰作,讲述了圣殿被亵渎、随后被收回和重新奉献的故事,以及一个小小的油罐持续提供光明八天的奇迹。从独立的油灯到中世纪的作品,通过巴洛克装饰的华丽繁荣到当代,这些光明节烛台反映了犹太文化在整个散居地的适应性。烛台、绘画、drei dels——几个世纪以来来自世界各地的光明节庆祝活动的所有精彩元素都汇集在这本精彩的书中。清晰,深刻,发人深省的评论使这本书成为假期的完美补充。 ISBN-10 : 0789332515 商品尺寸 : 23.62 x 2.03 x 31.24 cm; 1.09 公斤 出版日期 : 2016年9月13日 出版社 : Universe; Illustrated ISBN-13 : 978-0789332516 发布日期 : 2016年9月13日
