A public lecture by Tzvi Novick: " Gender Separation in the Literature of the Late Antique Synagogue" will take place on Wednesday, January 8th, at 4:30pm in Swift Hall Common Room (1st floor).
The paper examines the degree to which and the ways in which gender matters in the distribution of tropes and in the construction of narrative in synagogue literature from late antique Palestine.
Tzvi Novick holds the Abrams Chair of Jewish Thought and Culture at the University of Notre Dame. His research focuses on rabbinic literature and liturgical poetry from late antiquity.
