Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject American Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Cologne, language: English, abstract: This term paper discusses the representation of Jewish ideals in the book "Unorthodox" that was written by Deborah Feldman and published in 2012. The novel describes her experiences that range from her childhood to the beginning of her adult life that she spent in a deeply religious Jewish community in Williamsburg in New York City. A crucial aspect that rules her daily life in the Hasidic community are the strict gender-based laws that separate male and female members into two groups with different tasks, rules and social responsibilities. Deborah feels limited and imprisoned by the rules she has to follow as a woman in her community. That is why her story can be viewed as one of finding freedom and independence in an environment that discourages women to make up their own mind.
