Great Jewish Thinkers’ Series

Learn about the interesting concepts and ideas of Ahad Ha-Am at the final session of the Great Jewish Thinker's Series on Tuesday, April 3rd at 6:55 pm.Ha-Am was a Jewish modernist from Eastern Europe. He epitomized the rich possibilities of creating a modern, secular, yet authentically Jewish culture, that was truly Jewish, yet without its traditional theological premises. He believed Jewish culture should preempt Jewish politics and that Jewish ethics are indivisible from Jewish nationality.
