| Abstract | "Seven twentieth-century converts contends that in the twentieth century the borders dividing the Jewish and Christian faiths have, for many people, become fluid. But it is not only the borders that have changed, but also the very natures of modern forms of Judaism and Christianity that have been transformed by a new stage in Jewish-Christian relations, as explored through the stories of seven influential and creative converts"--Suppl. by publisher. |
