Abstract

This study attempts to retrieve the experiential quality of medieval Ashkenazic God awareness. Based upon an examination of the broad gamut of contemporary religious literature (law and liturgy, piyyut and commentary, chronicles and customals) it attempts to demonstrate that this awareness was imminent, intense and palpable. Methodologically, it offers an example of the way in which the tools of the history of representations can be constructively applied to Jewish intellectual history.
