About
Annette Yoshiko Reed joined the Harvard Divinity School faculty in July 2022, holding the Krister Stendahl Professor of Divinity and Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity titles. Her research spans Second Temple Judaism, early Christianity, and Jewish/Christian relations in Late Antiquity, with a focus on bringing ancient examples to bear on the theorization of identity and difference. Her specific areas of focus include apocalypses, demonology, and the shaping of the biblical past by so-called “Old Testament Pseudepigrapha” and “New Testament Apocrypha.” Reed’s historiographical interests extend to nineteenth-century scholarship on these topics by Jewish and Christian scholars. She has authored books such as Fallen Angels and the History of Judaism and Christianity, Jewish-Christianity and the History of Judaism, and Demons, Angels, and Writing in Ancient Judaism. Additionally, she has co-authored and co-edited multiple volumes, including The Ways That Never Parted, Jews and Christians in the Roman Empire, Enoch from Antiquity to the Middle Ages, and Rediscovering Enoch? The Antediluvian Past in the 15th and 19th Centuries. Her work often reconsidered the intertwined histories of Jews and Christians through the lens of marginalized writings like 1 Enoch and Pseudo-Clementine literature. Currently, she is working on a book on forgetting, exploring the cultural power of overwriting, fragmentation, and erasure in the reception of the Second Temple Jewish past.…

It is important to consider whether the crimogenic effect of non-fault liability can be justified, and whether better alternative comparative solutions are available. It is contended that by explicitly providing for punishment, despite a paucity of moral fault or blameworthiness, the individual is unfairly stigmatised as a criminal actor. A by-product is to undermine the mo…

book-chapter1st authorCorrespondingIn result crimes, whenever a consequence such as death is articulated as part of the actus reus (external conduct element) of the crime, it is incumbent on the prosecution to prove that the consequence transpired and that the defendant’s behaviour caused that specified consequence. Present law reveals significant problems in adoption of consistent approaches to doctrinal and theoretical underpinnings of causality precepts and culpability thresholds. This has been exemplified by a plethora of rec…
