‘Lost in Translation? Jewish Cultures’ Study Day – 1 June

We will be holding a one-day cultural event on Saturday 1 June consisting of a series of short talks led by experts from within the Parkes Institute at Southampton.

This thought provoking and inspiring conference will provide you with the opportunity to learn and engage in discussion about Jewish culture from academics of international distinction.

‘Lost in Translation? Jewish Cultures’ is the second study day for the general public from the Parkes Institute for the Study of Jewish/Non-Jewish Relations this year. Jewish life and identity have often been shaped in processes of dialogue with other groups, both in contact and conflict. This day will consider translation and transfer of languages but also values, beliefs, histories and narratives from past to present and from one culture into another as key parts in the Jewish experience.

Places are limited, so book your place early to avoid disappointment.

Full programme available on the website:
