At first\, we try to situate the story of Babel in a non-Western context\, highlighting non-European languages. The exhibit then traces the Renaissance study of languages through the lens of the Bible and its translations and of ancient material relics\, such as obelisks\, coins\, and other remains. We also showcase the tools scholars produced to study languages—for example\, medieval and Renaissance-era grammar books and lexicons. The exhibit ends with a reflection on the impact of language study and classification on the formation of identities and prejudices in the Western world. How did early 20th-century Westerners classify languages and peoples? What does it say about their understanding of nationalities and cultures and their place within a society of their own? \nThe exhibit was curated by Gabriella DiMeglio\, Miriam Krakowski\, FCRH ’27\, and Magda Teter.

During her stay\, she traveled across the country\, conducting research and interviewing Jews in India. “Henna\, Love\, and Light: Jewish Life and Art in Siona Benjamin’s India” brings to Fordham several pieces from Siona Benjamin’s series of photo-collage paintings\, “Faces: Weaving Indian Jewish Narratives.” These pieces serve as anchors that link the present and the past. Around Siona Benjamin’s art are photographs taken by the artist’s parents and family members. In the 1950s\, Siona Benjamin’s parents\, Judah and Sophie Benjamin\, traveled across India photographing synagogues and houses of prayer\, capturing the range and diversity of the Indian Jewish community: from splendid metropolitan synagogues to small rural prayer halls. The cache of photographs in Siona Benjamin’s possession thus documents an aspect of Jewish history\, now threatened by oblivion. \nLike Siona Benjamin’s art\, some of the old family photographs underscore how much the life and culture of Jews in India were very much of India. Henna\, saris\, glass lamps of synagogue lights meld with modern suits and classic fedoras becoming one. Indian and Jewish\, traditional and modern–all form a distinct Indian Jewish identity. \nThe exhibit was made possible by the Hadassah Ruth Weiner Jewish Art Fund at Fordham University and was curated by Amy Levine-Kennedy\, Mallory Roof FCRH ‘26\, and Magda Teter. It will be on view from January 30 until March 28\, 2025 in the Henry S. Miller Judaica Research Room on the 4th floor of the Walsh Family Library.

Nor do we have any ancient Jewish texts in which an author reflects on the passage of time in abstract\, philosophical terms. There are\, however\, a number of aspects of early Jewish notions of time that recur frequently in the texts\, some with roots in the Hebrew Bible\, and others that are developed for the first time during the Second Temple period. For example\, during this period we see the development of the notion of a world or age to come\, distinct from the present world. \nIn this talk\, Matthias Henze will examine a number of text passages—from the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha\, the Dead Sea Scrolls\, and the New Testament—to gain a better understanding of how Jewish intellectuals made sense of the passage of time and explored its beginning\, at creation\, and its end\, the eschaton. Together\, these texts offer an intriguing meditation on the various\, at times unexpected ways of constructing time in ancient Judaism. \nAbout Matthias Henze\nMatthias Henze was born and raised in Hanover\, Germany. In 1992 he earned a Master of Divinity from the University of Heidelberg\, Germany\, and moved to the United States to pursue a Ph.D. in Harvard’s Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. After completing his doctorate in 1997\, Dr. Henze joined Rice’s department of religion\, where he is now the Isla Carroll and Percy E. Turner Professor of Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism. His areas of interest include the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament\, Jewish literature and thought at the time of the Second Temple\, apocalyptic literature\, and the Qumran fragments. In particular\, Dr. Henze focuses on those early texts that never became part of the Jewish Bible – often subsumed under the labels ‘Apocrypha’ and ‘Pseudepigrapha’ – and what we can learn when these texts are read side by side with the canonical writings. Dr. Henze has written and edited ten books. While at Rice he has won five teaching/mentoring Awards. He was also named a founding fellow of Rice’s Center for Teaching Excellence. In 2009 he founded Rice’s Program in Jewish Studies\, of which he continues to serve as director.
