Readings on Maramarosh

Since World War II, the sub-Carapathian Mountain region once known as Maramarosh has remained 'Judenrein' (free of Jews).

Jewish Maramarosh lives on, however, through the contributions to scholarship and humanity of Maramarosh Holocaust survivors and their progeny, including Nobel laureate Elie Weisel and the Talmud scholar of Professor David Halivni-Weiss.

Professor Slomovic, recognizing the fluidity and the balance over time provided by Talmudic thought as exemplified through rabbinic teaching, invites the reader to join the discourse on the everyday life of everyday people.
