Guest lec­ture: Pres­i­dent of Col­lège de France speaks on the Joseph sto­ry

The Faculty of Theology is proud to host a special guest lecture: Professor Dr Römer is not only President of the prestigious Parisian Collège de France (CdF), but also one of the most renowned international scholars in the field of Old Testament studies.

His guest lecture, “How to live as a foreigner in Egypt? The example of the Joseph story in the book of Genesis,” is open to the public. Afterwards, a small reception with refreshments will be held in the foyer.

The event takes place in the context of the signing of a partnership agreement between HU and the Collège de France. Professor Dr Römer is the first non-French President of the institution and also holds the Chair of “The Hebrew Bible and its Contexts”.
