A History of Judaism by Martin Goodman

Join us as Martin Goodman, Professor of Jewish Studies at Oxford and President of the Oxford Centre for Jewish and Hebrew Studies, speaks about his highly anticipated new book, A History of Judaism!

In this magisterial book, Martin Goodman takes readers from Judaism’s origins in the polytheistic world through to the many varieties of Judaism today. This book masterfully weaves together the different threads of doctrinal and philosophical debate that run throughout Judaism’s history.

Annette Yoshiko Reed, Associate Professor in the Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies at New York University, and Shaul Magid, The Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein Chair in Jewish Studies at Indiana University and NEH Senior Scholar at the Center for Jewish History, will then offer responses.
