Zusammenfassung:To engender the Jewish past is to continue to question how and what we think we already know about Jewish history and Jewish memory. In order to imagine other stories, we must risk engaging in other ways of doing Jewish study.

This paper explores first, what it means to engender the Jewish past and then what a contemporary Jewish Studies informed by feminism looks like.
