Who Needs The Crown?
Hosted By: London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS)
Celebrating the King’s Coronation by exploring Jewish writers’ portrayal of the monarchy through the ages.
Who needs The Crown when you can read about the Royal Family in Modern Jewish Literature?
In this special event marking the weekend of the coronation of King Charles III, we will look at how the Kings and Queens of Britain, from Elizabeth I to Elizabeth II, have been depicted in Jewish culture, for the good, the bad, and the mad.
From political pamphlets to poems, novels to biographies, explore how Jewish writers have portrayed the monarchy – and their mistresses – in all their glory, and how Royalty has represented Jewishness in return.
