The
Jewish Encyclopedia is an English encyclopedia containing over 15,000
articles by over 400 scholars on the history, culture, and state of
Judaism and the Jews up to the early 20th century. It was originally
published in 12 volumes by Funk and Wagnalls of New York between 1901
and 1906. The work's scholarship is still highly regarded: the American
Jewish Archives has called it "the most monumental Jewish scientific
work of modern times" and Rabbi Joshua L. Segal noted that, "For events
prior to 1900, it is considered to offer a level of scholarship
superior to either of the more recent Jewish Encyclopedias written in
English." Reproduced here on DVD-Rom in digital format, each volume is
full colour page scan of the original texts and runs to almost 9000
pages of reading. Your disc also contains an additional 13 rare,
vintage books on the topic of Judaism.
