We are excited to announce our upcoming talk, given by Dr. Hannah Pollin-Galay, Associate Professor in the Department of Literature at Tel Aviv University and Director of the Goldreich
Bagels & Books returns! Dr. Itay Eisinger kicks us off with his talk, “‘Haifa, Which Is Like a Ratty Looking Bronx’: Allen Ginsberg's Visits to Israel.” This talk explores Allen Ginsberg's complicated relationships with Israel, Jewishness, and his family.
This talk briefly traces the role of Judaism in the study of mythology in modern European intellectual history, showing how questions around myth became intwined with the political theology of Jewish Emancipation.
