The Shalom Hartman Institute has launched a Hebrew journal of thought, Dorsheni, the commentators’ allusion to difficult matters that cry "probe me."
Dorsheni is set to appear every spring and fall, and will introduce the works of the Hartman Institute’s lecturers, fellows, alumni, and guests to the broad, educated Israeli public.
The inaugural issue included, among others,
essays by
David Hartman,
Donniel Hartman,
Avi Sagi, and
Yair Eldan. The issues covered included the place of the Holocaust in the Israeli national narrative, the global meltdown and Judaism, the Jewish institution of the social boycott, and prewar Tel Aviv’s interpretation of Purim.
