What is a Human?
C. Mike Chin, University of California at Davis & Rachel Neis, University of Michigan
West Bloomfield Lecture Series: Jews and Judaism in Antiquity
This conversation between two scholars of ancient religious and scientific thought takes ancient Jewish, Christian, and pagan texts as a starting point for questioning what we can imagine the boundaries and limits of the human body to be. How can ancient ideas about the human, the animal, the inanimate, and the life of the world spur our own imaginations in the Anthropocene era?
