Feminism in Judaism and Islam | Lectures by Anya Topolski and Margreet van Es

Religion and feminism do not necessarily go hand in hand. Many people see religious traditions as conservative institutions in which men are in charge and women are reduced to the roles of mother and housekeeper. Is this correct? And if so, why? Let yourself be challenged by the novel perspectives on the topic of Susannah Heschel, professor of Jewish Studies, and Margreet van Es, anthropologist of Islam. Monday 13 January 2020 | 19.30 – 21.00 hrs. | Theater hall C, Radboud University Due to unforeseen circumstances, Susannah Heschel unfortunately is unable to come to Nijmegen. We have found political philosopher Anya Topolski willing to replace her.
