Yente Austerlitz

Yente Austerlitz graduated with a masters in the humanities as a member of the inaugural class at Ralston college. She was the first student to receive the Philhellenism award for her passion and commitment to the Greek language. Prior to that, Yente received her masters in Forensic Psychology from John Jay college in NY and completed her internship at a NYS maximum security prison. She is curious about the nature of evil, devoted to speak with the ancients in their original language, and keen to continue studying the philosophy of belief and religion. Having taught herself English and ancient Hebrew at a young age, Yente has great respect for books and the written word and seeks to understand the truth in all that is One. She is currently working on a commentary on the fragments of Heraclitus in Ancient Greek as part of a Greek scholar position with Ralston college. While continuing her studies in Ancient Greek, Hebrew, German and Latin, she hopes to pursue a PhD. Yente believes that the key to wisdom is to encounter the ancients with humility and curiosity; her interests in language as philosophy, psychology, religion, Kabbalah and the humanities are the driving forces behind her passion for and analysis of the human psyche—or soul.
