Dr. Edward Breuer - CAN JEWS AND CHRISTIANS BE FRIENDS? January 31st, 7:30pm

[Sherilee Diebold-Cooze]

The Joseph and Wolf Lebovic Chair of Jewish Studies, in cooperation with the Waterloo Centre for German Studies, at the University of Waterloo present


Dr. Edward Breuer
CAN JEWS AND CHRISTIANS BE FRIENDS?

In an age when true Jewish Christian friendship was rare, the
dedicated eighteenth century relationship between Moses
Mendelssohn and Gotthold Ephraim Lessing stands out, although not without its religious tension.
Edward Breuer received his PhD from Harvard University and
currently teaches at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He
will explore this particular friendship and its challenges, as
a model for Jewish/Christian relationships today.
