Author Event: Robert Canfield "Jerusalem Burning"
The Babylonian attack on Jerusalem in 587 BCE forced upon the Israelite survivors the realization that Yahweh, one of the gods they had venerated, was an overwhelming presence in their affairs. Anthropologist Robert Canfield examines the process by which this transformation in religious understanding took place, describing it as an example of how human beings imaginatively imbue their affairs with moral significance. Robert L. Canfield is Emeritus Professor of Anthropology at Washington University in St Louis.
