Rabbinic Stories

New York University Professor Jeffrey
Rubenstein will speak on "Rabbinic
Stories: Between History and Literature"
11 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 9, at the
University of Michigan. His talk takes
place in Room 3050 of the Frieze Building,
105 S. State St., in Ann Arbor.
In his lecture, Rubinstein will discuss

whether rabbinic stories — from the
Talmud, Midrash and other works of rab-
binic literature — should be viewed as
reliable historical and biographical
sources, or whether they are better charac-
terized as didactic fiction that should be
studied with the tools of literary analysis.
He will discuss the nature of the rabbinic
story and the reasons for recent shifts in
scholarly approaches regarding the stories
of Hillel, Akiba, Shimon bar Yohai and
other great rabbis of the talmudic era.
The event is free and open to the public.
For more information, call (734) 615-
1287.
