While the discovery prompted considerable attention, full excavation and reports were not completed. Since 2001, the Ostia Synagogue Masonry, Mapping and Archaeology Project (OSMAP), directed by Professor L. Michael White of the University of Texas under the auspices of the Italian Ministry of Culture and the Soprintendenza of Ostia (now Parco Archeologico di Ostia Antica), has conducted six full seasons of new excavations and ten full seasons of laboratory study and analysis of the material remains, including several thousand “rediscovered” objects from the 1960s excavations. The results are now being published, and the picture that we get of this complex and its community is nothing short of spectacular. This article summarizes two sets of key findings that have emerged from our archival research and new excavations: we begin with a thoroughly revised chronology and phasing of the synagogue complex. The bulk of the article then focuses on our new findings regarding the architectural form and decoration of the Torah shrine in its Final Phase (after ca. 465 CE). Given its late date and monumental scale, the architectural design and ornate decoration of the Torah shrine represents a truly remarkable accomplishment by the Jewish community of Ostia.","PeriodicalId":41476,"journal":{"name":"Ars Judaica-The Bar Ilan Journal of Jewish Art","volume":"37 1","pages":"1 - 43"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73177133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Haggadah in fact resists such ennobling of its zoocephalism, and compelling analogues are adduced here for the birds. Masked with simple hominess, the characters confront Christian hegemony quietly and privately in a disputation through art. By co-opting and subverting Christian iconography and ritual, the illuminations urge Jewish commitment and resolve in the face of cultural domination – a social reality of insecurity that belies the sense of empowerment suggested in the griffin identity.","PeriodicalId":41476,"journal":{"name":"Ars Judaica-The Bar Ilan Journal of Jewish Art","volume":"45 1","pages":"63 - 89"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80855587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The immigration of Jews from Europe in the 1930s as a result of the rise to power of the Nazi regime in Germany brought a wealth of knowledge and cultural objects to the United States. This also resulted in several key institutions’ salvaging of such artifacts. These collecting efforts led to the founding and extensive growth of important Jewish museums across the United States from the 1950s onward. The role of Jewish museums was perceived as an educator for future generations. From centers trying to find their place in society, Jewish museums became key to understanding local communities in the United States. Since the 1980s they have continued to develop through the preservation of old synagogues and by offering unique experiences to children.","PeriodicalId":41476,"journal":{"name":"Ars Judaica-The Bar Ilan Journal of Jewish Art","volume":"25 1","pages":"145 - 156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88385343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The way Jewish texts imagine the relationship between Jacob’s sleeping body and his image on God’s throne as seen in the dream is structurally similar to the description of several scenarios of relic veneration in contemporaneous Christian accounts. In particular, the veneration of the imagined body of Saint Demetrius in the city of Thessaloniki, portrayed in some visions as resting on a couch inside a shrine, offers intriguing parallels to how Jacob’s dream comes to be conceptualized in Jewish literature. Pilgrim ampullae depicting the crucifixion scene and tokens featuring the bust portraits of Saint Symeon Stylites the Elder (d. 459) and the Younger (d. 592) on top of a column may offer another, this time material, intertext to the interpretation of Jacob’s dream. Central to these scenarios is a common formula, a scripted situation that organizes the scenario’s space as a system of relationships. Such formulas, the article argues, offered a range of possibilities independently explored by literatures and visual arts of the time.","PeriodicalId":41476,"journal":{"name":"Ars Judaica-The Bar Ilan Journal of Jewish Art","volume":"52 1","pages":"45 - 62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90430398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
