I am pleased to announce, in addition to my role at Crandall, I am also now serving as a faculty affiliate for the Centre for Jewish Studies at @dalhousieu.bsky.social directed by Eva Mroczek! I am looking forward to working with such an amazing group of scholars. www.dal.ca/faculty/arts...
Sad to say I did not request this book for the library… but I’m so glad we have it!
✨proofs✨ honoured to have an essay in a volume dedicated to the late Jim Aitken. the essay is a sequel of sorts to my JSJ article, “Are Eidōla Idols?” basically, if eidōla aren’t idols in the traditional sense, is eidōlolatria still idolatry? if not, then what?
PROOFS!!! Robert and I finally got the proofs for our edited volume dedicated and in memory of the late James Aitken. Over the moon to be at this stage! If everything goes smooth, the book should be published November 2026! Keep your eyes peeled and your book budgets ready!
