FEASTS AND FASTS: A FESTSCHRIFT IN HONOUR OF ALAN DAVID CROWN.

Editors: Marianne Dacy, Jennifer Dowling, and Suzanne Faigan.

Sydney, Mandelbaum Publishing, 2005, Mandelbaum Studies in Judaica No. 11.

Book Order $A22.95 (Plus $5 postage in Australia and $10 for overseas)

The Festschrift numbers 376 pages, and includes the work of twenty scholars such as Professors Emanuel Tov, Reinhardt Pummer, the late Ferdinand Dexinger, the late Professor David Patterson (Oxford) and Prof David Patterson from the University of Memphis as well as Professor Crown's former students, some of whom are scholars in their own right.

The broad ranging topics in Jewish studies are a testimony to the breadth of Professor Crown's scholarship over more than forty years. The book, proof read by Suzanne Faigan, and attractively presented in paperback (designed by Dr Dowling), was published by the Mandelbaum Press (Mandelbaum Studies in Judaica No 11). This work should be on the shelves of University and College libraries as a valuable resource tool.


The International Council of Christians and Jews Conference was held in Sydney at the Eric Caspary Centre, Shalom College, University of New South Wales from 8-11 July 2007 and was very successful. Papers from the conference will be posted on the ccjaustralia.org website. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
