JUDAIC STUDIES 112 - Introduction to Judaism:Classical Texts. Every Fall

Institution:

Franklin and Marshall College

Subject:

Description:

This course will focus on a number of classical texts ranging from the biblical period to the present. With the exception of a few selections, all have had their impact on Jewish culture in the Hebrew language. The chief aim of the course is to immerse students in the questions the texts raise, thus exposing them to continuity and change in Jewish self-understanding over time. The desired outcome is that the students become aware of certain key concepts (e.g. covenant, chosen-ness, prophecy, exile, redemption, Jewish law) and the continuing debates around them. Same as RST 112. Klein
