In Dialogue: Daniel Boyarin and Chris Mann

Professor of Talmudic Culture at the University of California at Berkeley, Daniel Boyarin works at the nexus of tradition and novelty. Chris Mann works in compositional linguistics. His unique style of reading-reciting extraordinarily dense, parenthetical texts, often at a high speed, sets the stage for this dialogue between texts.

This event is presented as part of In Dialogue,  a new series of performative dialogues between experts in diverse fields in conjunction with the exhibition As it were… so to speak: A Museum Collection in dialogue with Barbara Bloom. Each evening concentrates on a different aspect of “dialogue,” pairing speakers demonstrating theory and practice. Unlike in traditional conversation the speakers do not engage with one another, instead each addresses the subject at hand and the audience members directly. These events are in partnership with the New School for Public Engagement.
