Jewish Studies in the Aftermath of October 7
This workshop aims to examine how scholars of Jewish Studies think and rethink their disciplines in the aftermath of the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, and the ongoing war in Gaza. We ask participants to reflect on their disciplines as well as their own practices as scholars and intellectuals. Has the discipline experienced a crisis in the past year? If so, can we describe its contours? Can we continue to use old paradigms and notions, or should we seek new ones? And if so, where should we look for these?
