Internet Seminar: The Jewish Roots of Eastern Mysticism

Andre Orlav and James Miller

Email received from Marquette University:

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to announce a new scholarly site at http://www.marquette.edu/maqom/dedicated to the Jewish Roots of Eastern Christian mysticism. The interdisciplinary seminar on the Jewish Roots of Eastern Christian Mysticism is designed as an internet version of an ongoing research seminar of the graduate students and scholars at the department of theology of Marquette University (Milwaukee, USA).

The site explores the influence of Jewish Pseudepigrapha and Merkabah mysticism on Eastern Orthodox authors.

We will greatly appreciate if you can put our site on your page of links.

We appreciate your kind assistance.

Sincerely,

Andrei Orlov (andrei.orlov@marquette.edu) and

James Miller (james.miller@marquette.edu).

Moderators of the Jewish Roots of Eastern Christian Mysticism Project.
