    Jewish Studies

    About

    Overview The subsequent flourishing of Jewish studies at UChicago has been sustained by appointments in a wide range of departments: professorships of Jewish Hellenism in Classics, Medieval Jewish philosophy in Philosophy, and Jewish social and economic history in History, to name only a few. During the past decade and a half, the University has appointed eminent scholars in the study of Hebrew Bible, Midrash, Jewish medieval studies, Hebrew literature, American Jewish literature, Jewish political thought, Yiddish literature, modern Jewish thought, and German Jewish culture. Working together, they have created one of the most comprehensive, distinguished and interdisciplinary programs in Jewish Studies available at any American university.Learning outcomesThe BA program in Jewish Studies at University of Chicago provides a context in which UChicago students may examine the texts, cultures, languages, and histories of Jews and Judaism over three millennia. The perspective is contextual, comparative, and interdisciplinary. The long and diverse history of Jews and Judaism affords unique opportunities to study modes of continuity and change, interpretation and innovation, and isolation and integration of a world historical civilization. Students are encouraged to develop appropriate skills (in texts, languages, history, and culture) for independent work. I want to find another Bachelor Course
