The Elie Wiesel Center for Jewish Studies invites you to join us for an exciting book talk with renowned Professor Michael Weinman. On March 16th from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM, Professor Weinman will discuss his recently released book, Hannah Arendt and Politics, at the Boardroom in 147 Bay State Road.
In this thought-provoking book, Professor Weinman and co-author Maria Robaskiewicz argue that Arendt’s thinking about Zionism and the modern state of Israel has everything to do with the furious and sometimes demonizing reception Eichmann in Jerusalem and its author faced upon its initial publication.
Professor Weinman is a Professor of Philosophy at Bard College Berlin and a Visiting Professor at the College of Arts and Sciences at Indiana University. He is the author of five books, including The Emergence of Illiberalism and The Parthenon and Liberal Education.
This event has been made possible with the generous sponsorship of the Elie Wiesel Center for Jewish Studies, the Jewish Cultural Endowment, the Institute on Culture, Religion, & World Affairs, the Graduate Program of Religion Student Association, and the Department of Religion.
It is open to all, and we encourage members of the BU community to attend. RSVP here.
