Abstract

Abstract:This article traces the crossings of religion and gender, American Orthodox and secular Judaism, teachers and students, religious educational institutions and the lives that inhabit them. Highlighting Jewishness and transness as intersecting forms of crossing, it explores periods of personal and institutional transition in the lives of Professor Joy Ladin, Yeshiva University's first openly transgender employee, and three of her former students. Experimenting methodologically with form and source, this piece combines interview with textual and theoretical analysis to link the Jewish gendered lives of its interlocutors—who emerge from different locations across the Orthodox-secular Jewish spectrum—with one another, and with larger communal and institutional forms of American Judaism they index. In doing so, this essay connects gender, religion, and education as intersecting forms of lineage, which pass through the interlocutors' and institution's historical and contemporary worlds. Activating crossing as a form of Jewish learning and queer scavenging, the piece enacts a method of Jewish institutional and embodied knowledge production that moves across lived and textual religion, articulating an alternate path through current struggles for queer/trans religious lives. This path does not opt to lose or loosen these lives from American Orthodox life and its textual discourse, but rather, it links them to both, and to one another.

血统中的拉丁:穿过耶希瓦大学斯特恩女子学院犹太性别生活的大门
摘要:本文追溯了宗教和性别、美国正统派和世俗犹太教、教师和学生、宗教教育机构及其生活的交叉。它强调犹太性和跨性别是交叉的交叉形式,探讨了叶希瓦大学第一位公开跨性别员工Joy Ladin教授和她的三位前学生生活中的个人和制度转型时期。这篇文章对形式和来源进行了方法论实验,将采访与文本和理论分析相结合,将对话者的犹太性别生活——他们来自东正教世俗犹太光谱的不同位置——彼此联系起来,并与他们所指的美国犹太教的更大的社区和制度形式联系起来。在这样做的过程中,本文将性别、宗教和教育作为一种交叉的谱系形式联系起来,这些谱系通过对话者和机构的历史和当代世界。这部作品将穿越作为一种犹太学习和酷儿搜寻的形式,展现了一种犹太制度化和具体化的知识生产方法,跨越了生活宗教和文本宗教,阐明了当前酷儿/跨宗教生活斗争的另一条道路。这条道路并没有选择从美国东正教生活及其文本话语中失去或放松这些生命,而是将它们两者联系起来,并相互联系。
