Elena Dugan is a doctoral candidate in the Religions of the Ancient Mediterranean subfield. Prior to Princeton, she received an MSc from the University of Edinburgh in Biblical Studies, and a BA from McGill University in Religious Studies, with a minor in Arabic. Elena is interested in the influence of Second Temple Jewish thought on Late Antiquity and Early Islam, especially as reflected in the reception of scientific and apocalyptic texts. Much of her recent work has focused on the Book of Enoch, and the development and reception of its astronomical themes and models, both in later versions of the text and in other intellectual traditions.
