Dr. Alexandria Frisch serves as an Assistant Professor of Judaic Studies at George Mason University, specializing in Second Temple Judaism and biblical interpretation through postcolonial frameworks. Her academic journey includes advanced degrees from prestigious institutions focused on religious studies and Jewish education.
Her research interests center on Second Temple literature, particularly examining imperial dynamics, religious identity formation, and textual interpretations from postcolonial perspectives. Frisch's work explores how ancient Jewish communities negotiated power structures through biblical narratives, with special attention to the Dead Sea Scrolls and Hellenistic influences on Jewish thought.
Her publications demonstrate a consistent focus on how Second Temple authors reinterpreted biblical figures and narratives to address contemporary concerns, particularly regarding empire, religious practice, and identity. The scholarship reveals patterns of resistance literature and creative reinterpretation within constrained political contexts.
As a dedicated academic in Judaic Studies, Frisch contributes to advancing scholarly understanding of ancient Jewish literature and its contemporary relevance through rigorous textual analysis and interdisciplinary approaches.
