England and Bohemia in the Age of Chaucer
The Christian Jew and the Unmarked Jewess
Adrienne Williams Boyarin is already the author of Miracles of the Virgin in Medieval England: Law and Jewishness in Marian Legends (2010) as well as the Broadway anthology of Miracles of the Virgin in Middle English (2015).

Kafka’s Statue
This essay is not about Kafka’s Prague – a veritable industry of scholarship – but Kafka’s statue; or rather, what a modern statue of Kafka in postsocialist Prague signifies both about his fate as a writer in the city of his birth and what that fate may tell us about the complex history of twentieth-century Prague and Czechoslovakia.
