Heffers Bookshop, 20 Trinity Street Cambridge CB2 1TY. 18.00 – 19.00
Join authors Nick Posegay and Melonie Schmierer-Lee for a visual journey through over 125 years’ Cambridge Genizah research, complete with surprising tales of coexistence and interaction. Almost 1000 years ago, the Jews of Old Cairo began to place their worn-out books and scrolls into a hidden storage room - a genizah - of their synagogue. Over the years, they added all sorts of writings to the pile, sacred and secular texts alike. When the chamber was emptied at the end of the 19th century, it held hundreds of thousands of paper and parchment fragments. Now known as the “Cairo Genizah” , it has become one of the most important sources of knowledge for the history of the Middle East and the Mediterranean world. This book offers the first illustrated introduction to the unique collection of Cairo Genizah manuscripts at Cambridge University Library. …

Please join us for the Zoom launch of “Interfaith Work and Interfaith Families: A Toolkit.”
This will be an opportunity to bring together interfaith organisations, interfaith families, multiple religious practitioners, and academics working in this field. The goal is to provide tools, and connections, to work more closely together in the future.
This project grew out of personal experience. Both of the authors have built professions inspired by our interfaith families and identities. Susan covers interfaith families as a journalist and author. Dalia is an academic, studying interfaith families in her PhD research.
We created the Toolkit with these goals:
- To share what we have learned through full-time relationships across religious boundaries in our families–and/or through embodying more than one set of religious practices or ancestries.
- To provide interfaith organisations with tools and encouragement to engage with interfaith families & practitioners, and highlight successful examples of this engagement.
- To begin a conversation on how interfaith family members, interfaith organisations, and interfaith academic researchers can benefit from working together more closely.…
