Joseph (w)as a woman

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

We will explore the alluring and complex personality that was Joseph: his gender-bending character as beloved son of Jacob and Rachel, hated haughty brother, charismatic beauty, sexual assault victim, dreamer, and Pharaoh's Hand. We will examine Joseph's tale of (mis)adventures through art, modern Israeli poetry, midrash and our own interpretations and imaginations. Though somewhat text-based, no prior knowledge is necessary.
