Abstract

Abstract:

This article addresses a lacuna in scholarship: the burial and mourning rites for premodern Jewish children's deaths. I explore three genres of sources from western and central Europe: bylaws, custom books, and epitaphs. I argue that communal leaders regulated the process of grieving one's children, marking those deaths in ways that are different from how an adult is memorialized. Nevertheless, by creating additional rites or by permitting parents to circumvent certain norms, communal leaders acknowledged and even facilitated more intense expressions of parental loss.

调节情绪：现代早期阿什肯纳兹人对儿童的埋葬和哀悼

摘要:本文探讨了一个学术空白：前现代犹太儿童死亡时的埋葬和哀悼仪式。我探讨了西欧和中欧的三种资料：附则、习俗书和墓志铭。我认为，族群领袖对儿童的哀悼过程进行了规范，他们纪念儿童死亡的方式与纪念成人的方式不同。尽管如此，通过创建额外的仪式或允许父母规避某些规范，社区领导者承认甚至促进了父母丧子之痛的更强烈表达。

期刊介绍： Jewish Social Studies recognizes the increasingly fluid methodological and disciplinary boundaries within the humanities and is particularly interested both in exploring different approaches to Jewish history and in critical inquiry into the concepts and theoretical stances that underpin its problematics. It publishes specific case studies, engages in theoretical discussion, and advances the understanding of Jewish life as well as the multifaceted narratives that constitute its historiography.
