Two upcoming events of interest to JHSE members

Dear members,

I have just received the Eventbrite link to a very interesting event at Queen Mary University of London, my University. It is this year's Peter Hennessy and it could not be more timely.

On Friday 8 March, at 6:30pm, Professor Simon Schama will be speaking on the title: "Bad Chaps, Jews and the Failures of British Decency: Antisemitism in Historical Perspective".

The event is free and followed by a reception. Do sign up here, and fast: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/hennessy-lecture-2024-sir-simon-schama-tickets-95231904189.

Another interesting event which JHSE has co-organised with Jewish Book week is on 3 March 2024, at 11am, at King's Place, where I shall be joining Simon Schama and others in answering the question: What is Jewish History For?
