Fall 2023 Session A (August 31-October 20), asynchronous online: 

HGS 510 - The Holocaust and European Mass Murder (Krasner)

This course covers the period from the Nazi rise to power in Germany in 1933 to the end of World War II. The focus of the course is the Nazi murder of nearly 6 million Jews, but we will also set these events within the larger context of the mass murder of 14 million non-combatants by the Nazis and Soviets during this period. We will use the most recent historiography on the subject and study the perpetrators, the victims, and the witnesses of the worst crimes in human history.

Fall 2023 Session B (October 26-December 20), asynchronous online:

HGS 525/727 - Post-Holocaust Theologies (Sandberg)
The Holocaust raised profound challenges to conventional religious views of reality and the belief that God intervenes in human history. By surveying prominent Jewish and Christian theologians from 1966 to 2006, this course will focus on two major theological questions: (1) Why does God allow evil, epitomized by the Holocaust, to exist in the world? (2) What traditional Christian theological teachings may have played a part in the events leading up to the Holocaust? As we will see, the responses to these questions are varied, unsettling, and powerful.

JST 507 – Introduction to Classical Judaism (Davis)
This course provides a graduate-level introduction to Classical Judaism, covering the Biblical, Rabbinic, and Medieval periods. After surveying the history and major texts of the Classical period, the course will concentrate on training students to analyzw classical Jewish texts in depth, first examining traditional Jewish legal texts (Halachah) and then text of classical Jewish thought and values (Aggadah).

HIU's engagement with the Center for Chaplaincy Studies, Gratz College, and the BTI are all part of HIU's commitment to Global & Community Partnerships.
