Menachem Fisch, Paul Giffiths

In this exciting exchange, Menachem Fisch (Joseph and Ceil Mazer Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at Tel Aviv University), and Paul Griffiths (Warren Professor of Catholic Thought at Duke Divinity School) address the way Judaism can rise to the challenge of Dignitatis Humanae and Nostra Aetate; exploring the resources it has to offer for articulating a comparable religiously motivated commitment to the values of religious freedom and interfaith dialogue expressed by the two documents.This event is made possible by the Duke Center for Jewish Studies, Duke Divinity, and the Warren Chair of Catholic Theology.
