Climate change is happening, humans are causing it, and I think this is perhaps the most serious environmental issue facing us.

In a probing account of the Jewish diaspora in the four centuries from Alexander the Greats conquest of the Near East to the Roman destruction of the Jewish Temple in 70 C.E., Erich Gruen reaches often surprising conclusions. By the first century of our era, Jews living abroad far outnumbered those living in Palestine and had done so for generations. Substantial Jewish communities were found throughout the Greek mainland and Aegean islands, Asia Minor, the Tigris-Euphrates valley, Egypt, and Italy. Focusing especially on Alexandria, Greek cities in Asia Minor, and Rome, Gruen explores the lives of these Jews: the obstacles they encountered, the ...

Harvard University Press, Date: 2002 8vo (23.5 cm), xiv, 386 pp. Publisher's cloth backed boards and dust jacket (dj slightly frayed at extremities, front hinge somewhat cracked). In the first century CE, Jews living abroad vastly outnumbered those in Palestine, inhabiting regions spanning the Greek mainland, Aegean islands, Asia Minor, the Tigris-Euphrates valley, Egypt, and Italy. Examining hubs like Alexandria, Greek cities in Asia Minor, and Rome, Gruen scrutinizes the lives of diaspora Jews, elucidating their challenges, institutional frameworks, and adaptive strategies. Amidst sporadic harassment, this minority demonstrated resilience, with intellectuals deeply enmeshed in Greco-Roman culture yet adept at reshaping it for their own ends. Displaying both a reverence for their homeland and a dedication to local communities and Gentile governance, they navigated their identity with confidence, contributing to a vibrant cultural tapestry that defied conventional assimilation narratives, as Gruen's incisive analysis of historical and literary records reveals, challenging prevailing notions of Jewish engagement with the dominant Classical civilization. 2002.
