9.30–10.15  Keynote: Prof. Galit Hasan-Rokem (Hebrew University, Jerusalem): “Alexandria in the Literary Memory of the Rabbis: The Failure of Culture Translation and the Textual Powers of Women”
Hasan-Rokem’s lecture illuminates the regional and cultural differences between Rabbinic textual creativity in Palestine (Galilee, Judea and Caesarea) and in Babylonia. The sum of these voices crosses the main line of the course “between folk literature and canonizing institutions,” eventually breaking down the dichotomy.
