Edited by world-renowned scholars under the direction of Pulitzer Prize-winner Jack Miles, The Norton Anthology of World Religions provides a flexible library of more than 1,000 primary texts from the world's major religions-Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam-in six portable paperbacks. This anthology unites foundational works-the Bhagavad Gita, the Daode jing, the Bible, the Qur'an-with the writings of scholars, seekers, believers, and skeptics whose voices have kept these religions vital for centuries, allowing instructors to shape a variety of courses. The selections are supported by the meticulously prepared apparatus-introductions, explanatory annotations, bibliographies, maps, and glossaries-for which Norton Anthologies have set the standard for fifty years. Unprecedented in scope and approach, The Norton Anthology of World Religions: Judaism brings together over 300 texts from pre-Israelite Mesopotamia to post-Holocaust Israel and America. The volume features Jack Miles's illuminating General Introduction-"How the West Learned to Compare Religions"-as well as David Biale's "Israel among the Nations," a lively primer on Jewish history and the core teachings of Judaism.
