Discovering Women in Jewish History will discuss some of those differences in the social, economic, and spiritual realms of Jewish life. Dr. Baskins talk will focus on what historical sources can teach us about specific women in the Roman Empire and pre-Islamic Iraq, medieval Egypt and Germany, and the United States in the early decades of the twentieth centuryand how this knowledge relates to the challenges facing Jews today.
