"The powerful poetry of the Hebrew Psalms articulates a unique range of experience,
even in translation. They explore the deepest concerns of individuals and communities.
They are central to the performance of religion for both Jews and Christians. New
discoveries, such as the famous Dead Sea Scrolls, have transformed our view of their
role in Judaism, as has modern re-evaluation of the complicated relationship between
Judaism and Christianity. Here a group of leading scholars sheds fresh light on the
uses of the Psalms in post-biblical Jewish life in a multi-cultural world" ; "The
international conference "Psalms in Rituals from Antiquity to the Present," held on
October 24-26, 2018, at the Max-Weber Kolleg in the University of Erfurt, Germany,
aimed to showcase and also to build upon recent developments in what has become a
very exciting field, bringing to it the distinctive perspective of the Research Centre
"Dynamics of Jewish Ritual Practices in Pluralistic Contexts from Antiquity to the
Present," which hosted the event. The Research Centre, which was funded from 2015
to 2020 by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF), investigated the
dynamic relationship of rituals in pluralistic contexts and specifically in Jewish
and Christian religious traditions. While religious institutions often focus on tradition,
invariability, and rootedness in history, the Research Centre has found and studied
numerous examples of innovation and change in regard to religious ritual practices.
This landmark conference approached the subject of the Psalms as a dynamic part of
Jewish liturgy, ritual, and community formation from a broad perspective. ... This
volume contains a selection of the papers delivered at that conference together with
two additional papers, those of James Aitken and Laura S. Lieber, that were written
specially for the volume"--Preface
