Jewish/Muslim Dialogue Text-Based Workshop:
'POETIC TRADITIONS OF REMEMBERING THE DIVINE'
Matters
of the heart are often expressed in poetry. This includes prayer and
meditation, both inside a liturgical or ritual framework and beyond.
Far
from even thinking about being able to give a complete overview over
these treasures in our tradition, we will explore some examples for
texts from Jewish and Muslim sources:
- Asking God for help and sustenance
- Asking for forgiveness
- Complaining to God
- Praising God
- Love and Longing
