"The book defies the understanding of culture as a combination of various petrified "patterns," Jewish and Hellenic. It also challenges the idea of separate Jewish cultures. Rather, it endeavors to trace tremendous cultural changes. It was exactly these changes that connected one period to another, one literature to another, and thus embodied continuity and unity of culture."--Jacket.
