Beyond the Synagogue Gallery - Finding a Place for Women in American Judaism

Summary

Focusing on the nineteenth century, Goldman recounts the emergence of new roles for American Jewish women in public worship and synagogue life. Goldman’s study of changing patterns of female religiosity is a story of acculturation—of adjustments made to fit Jewish worship into American society.
