Part of the series, “Stories and Storytelling”

With Dr. Barbara Mann, Chana Kekst Professor of Jewish Literature

This session is generously sponsored by Yale Asbell, JTS Trustee

ABOUT THE SERIES

Join JTS scholars to explore a selection of stories drawn from across ancient, rabbinic, medieval, and modern Jewish literature. We will consider the power of shared stories, the unique ways in which they transmit values, norms, culture, and information, and how they can bring Jews together across time and space.
