If you know anyone who works on medieval Judaism, please send them this! Binghamton is hiring a Talmud/Rabbinics assistant prof: half in Judaic Studies, half in the Med/Ren center. A killer R1 job for the right person, and not a ton of applicants so far....

On the left, white text on a grey-blue background reads: “The leading forum in the world for new research in Jewish history, literature, and culture from Biblical times to the present day.” Below are logos for Liverpool University Press and the Oxford Centre for Hebrew & Jewish Studies. On the right, the journal cover is displayed with the text “Journal of Jewish Studies, Vol. LXXVI, No. 2, Autumn 2025.” A navy-blue circle reads “New issue,” and a yellow three pronged symbol is shown in the bottom corner. The background features faint handwritten Hebrew script.

At the @histassoc.bsky.social conference this was a recurring theme of the workshops. There is so much work going on at the grassroots to tell the truth about the past and tackle misogyny but we desperately need change from the top too. @beckyfrancis.bsky.social!
