Following are the supplemental readings for the class session on Judaica. The material from Ida Huberman’s book (Living Symbols: Symbolism in Jewish Art and Tradition), is meant to be a reference source. (In other words, no need to read the entire book, but glance through the PDF of Chapter 2 before the February 1 lecture, if you have the chance.)
