JS 100 - Introduction to Jewish Studies
This course introduces Jewish culture, history, and politics. We will
examine how the Jewish people and their religion emerged in Biblical times, and how Jewish culture has evolved and flourished for 3,000 years. We will look at the many varieties of “Jewishness,” as well as the impact the Jews have had on their non-Jewish neighbors. From Christianity to communism, from American humor and Soviet jazz music, the Jews have bequeathed a rich and diverse heritage to humanity.
