Brian Amkraut, executive director of the Laura and Alvin Siegal Lifelong Learning Program, will host “Israel’s Changing Story: How History Has Been Revised,” Wednesday, Oct. 17, at 7 p.m. at the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage.
About the lecture
The nature of the relationship between the Jewish people and the land of Israel has long been of interest to Jewish historians. Over the centuries, though, scholars’ depictions of this relationship have undergone radical changes. Amkraut will outline the major historical trends, the cause of the shifts and their impact on how society thinks about Israel’s history.
Tickets for members of the Siegal Lifelong Learning Program or the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage will be $5; tickets for nonmembers will be $10.
Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage and Siegal Lifelong Learning Program will co-sponsor the lecture.
