The Summer School brings together young researchers who are currently working on topics in Jewish history and culture (e.g. on Jewish religion and inner life, literature, culture, ideological movements, inter-religious and inter-cultural relations and everyday life and antisemitism) giving them the opportunity to present and discuss their projects in an informal and friendly atmosphere with leading scholars in the field. In so-doing we continue the series of Kochmann Summer Schools at Sussex creating an interdisciplinary network of younger scholars engaged in areas of European-Jewish studies, Thought and Culture from the early modern periods to the present day.
Candidates are invited to send, via email, a 500 word proposal outlining their PhD project, a short CV and one reference from their supervisor or relevant scholar in the field to:
David Jünger
Centre for German-Jewish Studies
E: d.juenger@sussex.ac.uk
