OSAJS 2022 Call for Proposals

OSAJS Project 10: Towards the
Study of Jewish-Buddhist Relations

(January to June 2021)

Project Leaders:
Boaz Huss, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev
Lionel Obadia, National Agency of Research in France
Sebastian Musch, University of Osnabrück

Core Group Member: Yaakov Ariel, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

The aim of the Oxford Seminar in Advanced Jewish Studies for 2020-2021 is to bring together scholars of Jewish-Buddhist relations and develop a framework for the future study of the field.  To date, Jewish-Buddhist studies have received little scholarly attention, even though the historical basis for the study of the Jewish-Buddhist relationship is strong.

OSAJS Project 9:  Between Sacred and Profane
–  Jewish Musical Cultures in Early Modern Europe
(October 2019 to March 2020)

This Seminar will focus on Ashkenazic, Italian, Jewish and Western Sephardic musical expressions in Europe during the early modern period (excluding European Jewish communities under Ottoman rule). Special emphasis will be given to the connection of liturgical, semi- liturgical and secular spheres within both composition and performance practice – hence the title “Between Sacred and Profane”.

 

Project Leader:
Diana 
Matut (Heidelberg/Halle-Wittenburg)
