Hyphen The Jewish Living Lab Join Rabbi Avi Finegold and historian Dr. Stephen Backhouse for Hyphen, a series of Judeo-Christian dialogues that challenge, provoke and broaden the scope of biblical and theological discourse in every episode as they help each other understand the basis of their respective faiths.Rabbi Avi Finegold received his ordination from Yeshivat Noam Hatorah in Montreal under the direction of Rabbi Joshua Shmidman. He studied at Concordia University and the University of Chicago and has been teaching Judaism in North America for over a decade. He is a founding Chair of Limmud Chicago and served on the LeMood Montreal team. Avi is currently the principal at the Jewish Living Lab, an adult education institute in Montreal, and co-hosts Bonjour Chai, Canadas preeminent Jewish current affairs podcast.Dr. Stephen Backhouse (McGill, Oxford) is an historian of Christian thought, an expert on the work of Søren Kierkegaard and an authority on the political theology of nations and Unfortunate Oxfordians Silas Gray My name is Silas AKA S!lecta. I was born and raised in East Oxford, which I am very proud of. Since I left Oxford, however, I have battled with my identity as an Oxfordian, after having to tirelessly enlighten people about the alternative Oxford that isn’t represented in popular media. People just don’t seem to see the Oxford I see and know.Students of Oxford and Brookes University make up only around 20% of the population yet seem to contribute more to the stereotype of a young Oxfordian.In fact, the Oxford I see boasts the third highest ethnic minority population in South-East England. The neighbourhoods in Oxford I’m most familiar with are amongst the 20% most deprived in England where 1 in 4 children live below the poverty line and 22% of adults have little or no educational qualifications.I wanted to talk to people who are from the same place as me and have gone on to do great things with their life and see how they have explored their identity as an Unfortunate OxfordianDISCL Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll Loyal Books If you've read and loved Alice in Wonderland, you wouldn't want to miss reading about her further adventures, the strange and fantastical creatures she meets and the delightful style and word-play that made the first book so appealing. Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll is thematically much more structured and cleverly constructed as compared to the earlier Alice book but still retains its childhood elements of wonder, curiosity and imagination. Lewis Carroll was the pseudonym of Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a gifted mathematics professor at Oxford during the late 19th century. He suffered from lifelong shyness, a debilitating stammer and several physical deformities including partial deafness. Awkward and uncomfortable with adults, he bloomed in the company of children and had a special insight into their world. He portrays Alice as a well-mannered child, brought up in a privileged background. Based on a real little girl whose father was also at Oxford during the time
