Abstract "100 Jewish Brides: Stories from Around the World collects stories of Jewish weddings in 84 countries from across the globe and throughout history. These stories are reflections of the way people understand Jewish marriage ceremonies-with their joys, strains, and variations. The stories cover ethnically, geographically, and historically diverse contributions, highlighting the similarities and differences of marriage celebrations across the Jewish diaspora, covering subjects from courtship and betrothal to the Ketubah and the ceremony itself. 100 Jewish Brides offers a glimpse into the stories that brides tell about their weddings and how they placed their weddings within the larger narrative of their lives. It represents a chance to learn how Jewish life was and is actually lived around the world by hearing about women's activities and listening to their voices"-- Provided by publisher.
