RABBIS OF THE (SCIENTIFIC) REVOLUTION: JEWS AND EARLY MODERN SCIENCE

Presenter: Iris Idelson-Shein, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev

Join us to explore the ways in which early modern Jews responded to the scientific and cultural innovations of their time. How aware were European Jews of these discoveries and developments? How did they interpret their religious, social, and cultural significance? How did they translate the new discoveries and transformative innovations into their own Jewish idiom?
