Listen "Episode 32: Dr. Clémence Boulouque on the Importance of Understanding the Text "
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to Yeah, I Got an F#%*ing Job With a Liberal Arts Degree!
Today's episode features a conversation with Columbia University Professor Dr. Clémence Boulouque. Clémence is an author of eight books and an Assistant Professor in Jewish and Israel Studies. Her interests include Jewish thought and mysticism, interreligious encounters, intellectual history and networks with a focus on the modern Mediterranean and Sefardi worlds, as well as the intersection between religion and the arts, and the study of the unconscious.
Jeff and Clémence discuss the texts that are often read in the Core Curriculum at Columbia College, the successes and areas of improvement for the program and how Clémence came to her work as an academic, a researcher and a professor. She also mentions Theatre of War this episode, and there will be more on that in an episode very soon!
This is the third of seven episodes that we are releasing over the course of the next two months featuring interviews that were conducted while we were on campus at Columbia University in early April of 2024. We spoke with a range of faculty and some students about their experience working and learning within the storied core curriculum at Columbia College. Check out our first two episodes from this series with Dr. Richard John and Dr. Meredith Gamer.
