EARLY REGISTRATION DISCOUNT ENDS MARCH 17.
The Bertie Cohen "Rabbi's Invitational Series" of Temple Israel is proud to invite the public to
The Julian Jaynes Society
CONFERENCE ON CONSCIOUSNESS
June 5-8, 2013
Temple Israel
This multidisciplinary conference will address the widespread depictions of gods and idols throughout the ancient world's artifacts and literatures; the relationship of introspective consciousness and language; the influence of oracles on entire nations and cultures; the disappearance of prophetic voices in biblical literature over a specific time frame; the question of how consciousness is taught to children and developed within cultures; and the vestiges of earlier mentalities in modern mental life.
The conference will draw together neuroscientists, clergy, linguists, psychologists, historians, philosophers, and anyone who is intrigued by questions about how and why we humans began to think about thinking. Three days of presentations and discussions will feature scholars from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The public is invited.
Registration information is available on the Temple Israel website www.templeisraelwv.org
