ZAOKRET KA TELU U JEVREJSKIM STUDIJAMA, TELO TEKSTA RABINSKOG LITERARNOG KORPUSA I TELO BOGA (I/KAO TELO ČOVEKA) U RABINSKOM JUDAIZMU
THE CORPORAL TURN IN JEWISH STUDIES, THE TEXTUAL BODY OF RABBINIC LITERATURE, AND THE BODY OF GOD (AND/AS THE BODY OF MAN) IN RABBINIC JUDAISM

Summary/Abstract: Under the influence of M. Foucault and Women's Studies, the academy of the Jewish Studies, launched the question related to the corporeality of God in the Rabbinic Judaism. Starting from the times of Saadia Gaon and Moses Maimondes, the question such as this one, was usually related to heresy. Nevertheless, the speculations of God’s body are far from being any novelty in Judaism. It is one of the many tiles of the millennia old mosaic that we call the Jewish Religion. Here we would like to propose, that the Rabbinic Judaism, as a surviving witness that narrates the story of how the Body of God partly abandoned the temple and entered the holy text, demanding a radically new anthropological – exegetical standards, from all of those longing to encounter God.
