CANCELLED!!! Rabbi Löw and the Golem: The Story That Began in Moravia
The lecture will introduce the personality of Rabbi Yehuda Levy ben Bezalel (c. 1525-1609), known as the Maharal or Rabbi Löw, one of the most important Jewish thinkers associated with the Czech lands. The lecture by historian Dana Vedra will focus on his Moravian influence, intellectual contribution and the origin of the legend of the Golem, which became associated with his personality only in later times.
