MODIYA
The MODIYA Project was developed by the center's working group on Jews, media, and religion.
It is an open source resource for exploring the interrelation
of Jews, media, and religion as an area of research and teaching. Within
this wide-ranging field, the MODIYA Project addresses such issues as: how
uses of media figure in Jewish religious practices, how Jews discuss the
opportunities and challenges new media pose to religious life, and how the
engagement with media engenders new notions and experiences of Jewish community,
continuity, and spirituality. We believe that attention to this field of
inquiry will enhance the study of Jewish religion, history, and culture,
as well as make valuable contributions to the fields of religious studies,
communications, media studies, ethnic studies, and cultural studies, among
other disciplines.
