We scholars : heresy in the university/Intellectual
responsibility/passionate ambivalence
Jacques Berlinerblau is an assistant professor and director of Judaic studies at Hofstra University.
Heresy in the University is an exemplary act of
adjudication-genuinely clarifying about matters that have so often,
most often been obscured by angry polemic, genuinely judicious in a
way that only a very capacious, open-minded and broad-ranging mind
could manage, charmingly self-conscious about its own limits and
yet quite passionate about its loyalties...an exemplary book.
*coeditor of Cosmopolitics: Thinking and Feeling Beyond the Nation
and author of Feeling Global: Inte*
Berlinerblau's ability to integrate far-reaching serious scholarly
and ethical issues within the substantive content of the Black
Athena debate is impressive.
*Howard University, coeditor of The Challenge of Black Athena*
