SHOSHANA ROSENBERG presents ‘Swirling: Queer Hermeneutics and Jewish Thought’

In partnership with Testing Grounds

This talk explores hermeneutics and the ways it can be harnessed into a queer, relational research practice. By disrupting the author/text binary, we can see the messy ways in which we “swirl” when we come into contact with texts, transforming them while being transformed in often rapid succession.
