The story behind the legendary figure of 鈥渢he Wandering Jew鈥 is one of the most fascinating tales in modern Jewish history. In this conversation, Yair Mintzker and Shaul Magid will discuss Mintzker鈥檚 new book, I, Wandering Jew: A Five-Century History of Our Modern Condition. The book traces the legend of the Wandering Jew back to its source, discusses its many metamorphoses through five centuries, and relates it to the fraught present moment. Please join UPenn's Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies for this event!
