We are pleased to share the latest issue of Iggrot Ha'Ari, Columbia's undergraduate journal of Jewish scholarship, now available online.
Published each spring with advisory from the Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies, Iggrot Ha'Ari is an open-access, interdisciplinary journal that features student research engaging with Jewish texts, identity, and religious thought. Its name—The Lion's Letters—pays tribute both to Columbia's mascot and to the rabbinic tradition of Responsa.
The journal seeks to foster thoughtful academic discourse on topics relevant to contemporary Jewish life while encouraging a wide range of analytical approaches. The journal aims to make writing an academic article on a Jewish topic accessible while giving writers the resources they need to create a high-quality piece that engages with and furthers the existing corpus of Jewish academia.
