Marc B. Shapiro (Hebrew: מלך שפירא, born 1966) holds the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Chair in Judaic Studies at the University of Scranton and is the author of various books and articles on Jewish history, philosophy, and theology. His writings often challenge the bounds of the conventional Orthodox understanding of Judaism using academic methodology while adhering to Modern Orthodox sensibilities. His books ''Between the Yeshiva World and Modern Orthodoxy'' (a biography of Rabbi Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg) and ''The Limits of Orthodox Theology'' (a study of the disputes over Maimonides' Thirteen Principles of Faith) were both National Jewish Book Award finalists. In 2015 He published ''Changing the Immutable: How Orthodox Judaism Rewrites Its History'', which documents the phenomenon of internal censorship in Orthodoxy. Shapiro is a popular scholar-in-residence and on-line lecturer for Torah in Motion, for which he also leads Jewish history tours to Europe. He often writes for the Seforim Blog. Shapiro received his BA at Brandeis University and his PhD at Harvard University, where he was the last PhD student of Professor Isadore Twersky. He received rabbinical ordination from Rabbi Ephraim Greenblatt. His father is Edward S. Shapiro who has published books on American history and American Jewish history. According to Rabbi Jeremy Rosen, Shapiro is "one of the most important and influential committed religious Jews alive today." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Marc Shapiro )〕 == Books authored == *''Between the Yeshiva World and Modern Orthodoxy: The Life and Works of Rabbi Jehiel Jacob Weinberg, 1884-1966'' (London, 1999) *''The Limits of Orthodox Theology: Maimonides' Thirteen Principles Reappraised'' (Oxford, 2004) *''Saul Lieberman and the Orthodox'' (Scranton, 2006) *''Studies in Maimonides and His Interpreters'' (Scranton, 2008) *''Changing the Immutable: How Orthodox Judaism Rewrites Its History'' (Oxford, 2015) * Ed.
