Celebrating Theology And Religious Studies Faculty From The University Of Nottingham: Agata Bielik-Robson

Dear Friends and Family,

Today I want to introduce to you the other member of our Jewish studies team, Agata Bielik-Robson. I don’t know Agata’s background very well, nor has she written anything about on her university webpage. I do know that Agata spends half of her year with us in Nottingham and the other half in her native land of Poland teaching at Warsaw University.

Agata teaches primarily Jewish philosophy. Her interests include modern Jewish philosophy from Baruch Spinoza to Jacques Derrida, Jewish Gnosticism (of an anti-spirit not anti-matter nature), and contemporary philosophy, especially as it relates to theology.

Agata teaches a variety of courses on modern Jewish philosophy and is well liked by her students.
