The Jewish Woman in Contemporary Society: Transitions and Traditions , Adrienne Baker |
| Description: What does it mean to be a Jewish woman today? To an Orthodox woman, it means living a religious way of life in which serving God totally defines her self-perception and her role as wife and mother. For the secular woman, it means having a sense of belonging, although not necessarily to a specific Jewish community. Most contemporary Jewish women fall somewhere in between, but at the core of all of their identities is a complex interweaving of religious and ethnic elements, a shared history, and a collective memory of periods of prejudice, persecution, wandering, and resettlement. Focusing on Jewish women in the United States and Britain, Adrienne Baker examines such issues as women's role in religious law, the spectrum of synagogue observance, the mother's role as conveyor of tradition, conversion and inter- faith marriages, and sexuality. In particular, the book examines the impact of feminism on Jewish women and their culture, uncovering the counterinfluences of tradition and new freedoms on women's lives. | |

Orthodoxy And Feminism , Norma Joseph |
| Description: Norma Baumel Joseph explicates the Orthodox feminist demand for more inclusive roles for Jewish women, including fuller participation in communal and religious activity. She examines four different models offered by Rabbis Yisrael Meir Ha-Kohen (Hafetz Hayyim), Samson Raphael Hirsch, Moshe Feinstein, and Joseph B. Soloveitchik to justify the acceptance of women's Torah study, in an attempt to determine a valid halakhic model for feminist innovation. | |

Qeri'at ha-Torah by Women: A Halakhic Analysis , Mendel Shapiro |
| Description: Mendel Shapiro offers a comprehensive review and analysis of the halakic issues raised by women's participation in qeri'at ha- Torah (public Torah reading) in a traditional minyan (quorum) of men. The author argues that the only tenable halakhic objection to woman's aliyyot in such a service is the one raised by the Talmud--that the practice violates kevod ha-tsibbur (the diginity of the congregation)-- and that there are certain circumstances where women's aliyyot should be permitted. | |

Comparative Reflections On Modern Orthodoxy And Women's Issues , Sylvia Barack Fishman |
| Description: This essay explores the socialogical parameters of Modern Orthodox change in response to women's issues, analyzing diverse responses in differing communities and generational groupings. It shows how younger Modern Orthodox women have embraced many feminist achievements, while rejecting overt identification with feminism itself out of a desire to demonstrate their loyalty to rabbinic authorities and traditions. The essay suggests that many Modern Orthodox communities today provide role models for religious vibrancy, which as been enhanced, not damaged, by meeting feminist challenges. | |
