Nashim: A Journal of Jewish Women's Studies and Gender Issues
Nashim: A Journal of Jewish Women's Studies and Gender Issues was co-founded by the Schechter Institute of Jewish Studies, and the Hadassah-Brandeis Institute. This journal provides an international, interdisciplinary academic forum for the innovative work being done in Jewish women’s and gender studies. It regularly includes articles on literature, text studies, anthropology, archeology, theology, contemporary thought, sociology, the arts and more.
Nashim creates communication channels within the Jewish women’s and gender studies community and brings the fruits of that community’s work to a wider audience. Each issue is theme-oriented and produced in consultation with a distinguished feminist scholar. Nashim is published twice a year by Indiana University Press.
