Contemporary Israel: From Antiquity to Modernity

Thursdays, 1:30 - 3:00 pm - Sep 7, 14, 21, 28

Location: Mayborn Museum

It is impossible to accurately navigate the complex Middle East
without understanding its Jewish roots and Jewish historical
attachment to the land. In this course Bill Baker brings a lifetime
of first-hand Middle East residency and scholarship to this volatile
region. The course examines early Hebrew ethnogenesis, 1400
years of intermittent self-rule, diaspora, persecution,
reconstitution, statehood, the Palestinian narrative, Arab-Israeli
wars, and Israel’s new existential threat: Iran.
