14. – 15. Mai, Workshop.
Organisation: Prof Dr. Galili Shahar und Prof Dr. Liliana Ruth Feierstein.
Abraham, the biblical/Quranic protagonist and his sons, Ishmael and Isaac, are associated with mighty tales of sacrifice and rescue. […] This workshop discusses a few of these major texts from the biblical and Quranic sources, via Midrash and Tafsīr, to contemporary literary compositions, addressing the bindings of Abraham’s sons as a method of learning. The framework of the workshop is comparative, dealing with both Jewish and Muslim sources, Hebrew and Arabic scriptures and texts, while reflecting European and German(-Jewish) perspectives of the aqedah/aqīdah (the binding/sacrifice of the sons, the act of belief). In doing so, the workshop explores how study itself, efforts of re-interpretation, acts of conversation and dialogical, critical forms of learning create an ethical intervention, while offering a renewal of Jewish-Arab scholarship.
