Dear Scudd,
I am excited to announce on behalf of Dr Shaina Trapedo the launch of
‘Twice Blest’, a podcast from the Yeshiva University Straus Center for
Torah and Western Thought, New York. Hosted by Dr Trapedo, ‘Twice Blest’
brings listeners in-depth conversations with faith leaders,
scholars, and writers to explore the relationship between Shakespeare
and the Hebrew Bible.
This fascinating series, which reveals the often-overlooked undercurrents of Judaic thought and wisdom in Shakespeare, will appeal to anyone interested in Shakespeare, Judaism, and the relationship between theatre and spirituality.
