Rebecca N. Goldstein Awarded National Humanities Medal

The officers of the International Society for Heresy Studies wish to share some exciting news with our colleagues. ISHS Founding Member and current Board Member, Rebecca N. Goldstein, was awarded the National Humanities Medal by President Obama in September. Per , Goldstein received the award for

 

bringing philosophy into conversation with culture. In scholarship, Dr. Goldstein has elucidated the ideas of Spinoza and Gödel, while in fiction, she deploys wit and drama to help us understand the great human conflict between thought and feeling.
