Description
What does Jewish thought have to say about the ecological catastrophe we are living in? This talk will examine ways Jewish philosophers have responded to this crisis by finding images in traditional texts to guide their thinking. In particular, we will examine the image of Noah’s ark and its strange history and see what we can still learn from it. More info available here: https://cjs.wisc.edu/event/cytron2024/
