Mapping the Field of Jewish-Christian Relations (Hybrid Conference)

The modern academic study of Christian-Jewish relations has existed for more than a century. Yet it is also a complex interdisciplinary field whose subject areas and methodologies have not yet been fully defined in a comprehensive way, resulting in fragmented conversations among scholars. The Mapping the Field conference proposes to delineate the current contours of the academic study of Christian-Jewish relations. This conference will excavate a range of subjects, disciplines, and methods that exist within the field’s contemporary expression while also remaining open to the ethical and moral concerns that frequently motivate scholars’ work in it.
