Event details
The Parkes Institute is hosting this evening talk as part of Interfaith week.
‘Jews, Christians and Muslims. What do they think about each other?’
Britain is blatantly a multi-faith society today but that has been the case throughout its modern history. This lecture will explore how people from the three Abrahamic faiths in Britain imagine one-another, especially at a grassroots, everyday level. It asks what are the barriers to thinking about the religious 'other' and how can they be overcome?
