**Demons, Dybbuks, And Golems: The World Of Yiddish Folklore – 09/28/2023 –
11/02/2023**

While figures such as Maimonides derided magic and superstition, folk beliefs
prevail throughout Jewish history and continue to this day. Comprising tales
and stories from the ancient, medieval and modern periods, this course will
take you on a literary journey through the universe of Jewish folklore. We
will look at the origins of Jewish magic, the rise of Jewish mysticism, the
roots of the famous Dybbuk story, folk medicine, wonder workers and
representations of Jewish folklore in literature.
