The Jewish Studies Program presents a lecture by Dr. Nan Goodman in Gilman 17 on 10\/21 at 12:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This talk argues that we cannot fully understand the radical nature of Louis Brandeis\u2019s privacy argument–in particular his focus on the \u201cintense emotional life\u201d and \u201cman\u2019s spiritual nature,\u201d in his celebrated law review article, \u201cThe Right to Privacy\u201d\u2014without taking his Frankist ancestry and his mother\u2019s Sabbatian memory into account.  Reading his article alongside his mother\u2019s memoir of her Frankist relatives in Prague, I argue further, reshapes our understanding of two significant areas of inquiry:  the provenance of the celebrated article, a subject of some debate in scholarly circles, and the relationship between Brandeis\u2019s Jewish identity and privacy law.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n
