HUMA 423: Relations between Jewish and Christian Cultures in Europe, c. 1100-c. 1650

Humanities · 5 credits · Global Humanities & Religions

A seminar in which we investigate some of the many ways in which Jewish and Christian cultures influenced each other - through individuals, texts, institutions, and communities - during formative periods in the history of medieval and early modern Europe. Through analysis and interpretation of select sources, we will study several aspects of Jewish-Christian interaction - some singular, some episodic, some ongoing - including legal structures regulating relations between Jews and Christians, forms of direct cultural exchange (ideas, beliefs, practices, etc.), individual cases of religious conversion, uses of polemical literature, episodes of inter-communal violence, and the manifestation of concerns with purity and exclusion.
