Workshop: Ambivalences of Jewish-Muslim Relations

2. August 2024

Heidelberg University of Jewish Studies invites contributions for the workshop “Friends, Enemies, Frenemies: Ambivalences of Jewish-Muslim Relations”. The workshop will deal with different understandings of Jewish-Muslim ambivalence over time: In which contexts did Jews portray Muslims as role models? When and how did Muslims learn from Jewish culture or attempt to emulate it? How did political conflicts shape the dynamics of learning about the respective “other”? And how can we theorize the frequent shifts from amity to enmity (and back again)?

The Workshop will take place on January 26-28, 2025.

Deadline for application: September 30, 2024 | Details
