David Shyovitz is Associate Professor of History and Jewish Studies at Northwestern University and the Director of NU’s Crown Family Center for Jewish and Israel Studies.

His research and publications focus on pre-modern Jewish cultural and intellectual history, with a particular emphasis on the history of halakhah, the development of Jewish theology, and the dynamics of Jewish-Christian and Jewish-Muslim relations. He is the author of A Remembrance of His Wonders: Nature and the Supernatural in Medieval Ashkenaz, and of the forthcoming “O Beastly Jew!” Jews, Animals, and Jewish Animals in the Middle Ages.

David received his BA, MA, and PhD at the University of Pennsylvania and studied for two years at Yeshivat Har Etzion.
