The Institute for Jewish Studies at the Wes tfä\;lische Wilhelms-Universitä\;t Mü\;nster and the Research Centre &ldquo\;Dynamics of Jewish Ritual Practices in Pluralistic Contexts &rdquo\; at the Universitä\;t Erfurt are planning a joint workshop on &ldquo\;Ritual Food and Eating in Medieval Ashkenaz\,&rdquo\; to take plac e in Erfurt (Germany) on May 16 and 17\, 2019.\n
\n\nMany images cre ated and used in Jewish contexts visualize aspects of food and cultures of eating in medieval and early modern Jewish communities throughout Europe and beyond. The surviving material culture includes artifacts associated with eating practices and ritual foods\, and textual sources\, including e xegetical literature and Responsa\,refer to rituals that involve food\, th e dietary laws\, and various other features related to eating practices.\n
\n\nThe workshop is designed to bring together researchers with dif ferent areas of expertise who are interested in ritual foods and the ritua ls of eating to discuss various methodologies and to allow for interdiscip linary work on such questions as:\n
\n\n&diams\; How did the ideas c oncerned with ritual foods and rituals of eating discussed in ancient lite rature find their way into medieval culture and to their eventual depictio n in Jewish works of art?\n
\n\n&diams\; To what degree did medieval Christian and Jewish cultures have elements of ritual and mundane eating practices in common?\n
\n\n&diams\; In what ways did material cultur e inform the images conveyed in Jewish art and the interpretation of these medieval depictions\, and what do these portrayals tell us about the cont emporary material culture?\n
\n&diams\; Do food-related aspects in J ewish visual and textual culture offer clues relevant to the study of soci al behavior\, social stratification\, and social gaps?\n
\nIf you ar e interested in participating in this workshop\, please submit a short CV and a one-page proposal describing the research you wish to present to Cla udia Bergmann (claudia.bergmann@uni-erfurt.de) or to Katrin Kogman-Appel ( kogman@uni-muenster.de) by January 31\, 2019.
