Gil Anidjar will lecture on the topic 'The Semitic Question' as part of the CMES Director's Series.
"Anidjar succeeds in shifting our understanding of Christianity's relationship to modernity, to power, to Jews and Arabs, and to Judaism and Islam."
Mitchell B. Hart, University of Florida
"Anidjar is a master of Derridean deconstruction, a provocative analyst of the role of Western Christianity in the formation of contemporary hostilities."
Talal Asad, Graduate Center, City University of New York
Lunch will be served following the lecture
