Schismatics, Heretics, and Religious Crisis: Frankism and the Turbulent 18th Century in East Central European Jewry. International Summer School in Jewish Studies Olomouc

Original language description

The international summer school, intended primarily for graduate and undergraduate students of Jewish Studies and related study programmes, was aimed to heighten participants&apos; knowledge about the dynamic quality of Jewish religious history, with a focus on early-modern Jewish heterodoxies. In particular, the course concentrated on the topic of Sabbatean and post-Sabbatean movements. The summer school program insisted of the intensive instruction in the morning and/or early afternoon (35 instruction units, lectures, seminars, practical teaching during the field trips) and cultural and social events in the afternoon and evening (guided tours in Olomouc and neighbourhood, excursions and trips to attractive destinations in the Czech Republic, cultural events in Olomouc and neighbourhood). The event was hosted by the Kurt and Ursula Schubert Center for Jewish Studies at Palacký University in Olomouc; which, since its establishment, has played a significant role in revitalizing the research of the Moravian Jewish heritage. In general perspective the international summer school was aimed to bring together European, Israeli and other students of Jewish Studies, who were to be exposed to interactive instruction and who were to bring important newly acquired knowledge home. The exchange of knowledge, taking place in a cross-cultural group of participants, both students and faculty, should allow for new and shared perspectives on Jewish Studies across borders, languages, and scholarly specialties. International learning encounters between university students and academics from the Czech Republic, Israel and other European and non-European states should enrich the experience for all concerned, stimulating new kinds of intellectual, cultural, and social interaction. The summer school, open mainly for graduate and undergraduate students of Jewish Studies (and related study programs), experts in Jewish Studies and all who are interested in Jewish history, culture and philosophy, hosted 22 successful applicants, 11 from European countries (Czech Republic, Italy, Ukraine), 10 from Israel and 1 from USA.
