Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD Students in European-Jewish History and Culture
Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD students in European-Jewish History and Culture
The biennial Max and Hilde Kochmann Summer School for PhD students in European-Jewish History and Culture will take place on the University of Sussex campus from Sunday 2 July - Wednesday 5 July 2017.
It is organised by the Centre for German-Jewish Studies at the University of Sussex (www.sussex.ac.uk/cgjs) in cooperation with the Martin Buber Chair in Jewish Thought and Philosophy at the Goethe University Frankfurt a. M. (http://www.uni-frankfurt.de/40998908/profil)
The Summer School brings together young researchers who are currently working on topics in Jewish history and culture (e.g. on Jewish religion and inner life, literature, art, ideological and social movements, inter-religious and inter-cultural relations as well as family and everyday life) giving them the opportunity to present and discuss their projects in an informal and friendly atmosphere with leading scholars in the field. In doing so, the Summer School continues the efforts of previous events creating an interdisciplinary network of younger scholars engaged in areas of European-Jewish studies, thought and culture from the early to modern periods.
For further information regarding the summer school please contact: Gideon Reuveni (g.reuveni@sussex.ac.uk),
Update: The programme for the summer school has been finalised and is available to view here (pdf).
