Overview

Oppenheim (religion, Concordia U., Montreal) explores the manner in which religious language develops in answer to challenges and promises of the encounter between individuals, the dialogue between Jews and non-Jews, and the quest by Jewish women to be accepted as full participants in Jewish communal life despite their distinctiveness and otherness as women.
