Annette Yoshiko Reed

    Annette Yoshiko Reed si concentra sullo studio dell'ebraismo del Secondo Tempio, del cristianesimo primitivo e delle relazioni ebraico-cristiane nella Tarda Antichità. Il suo lavoro esplora a fondo le correnti teologiche e storiche che hanno plasmato queste culture. Indaga le origini dell'angelologia e della demonologia ebraica, nonché la complessa storia del cosiddetto "giudeocristianesimo". Reed è dedicata a svelare le intricate connessioni e le influenze reciproche tra le comunità ebraiche e cristiane durante un'era fondamentale nella formazione delle religioni occidentali.
