JEWISH WRITING DURING THE HOLOCAUST

In 2020, the Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization published Volume 9 of its anthology of Jewish writing. Titled “Catastrophe and Rebirth: 1939-1973,” this volume explores Jewish perceptions of the momentous events of the mid-twentieth century and how Jewish people around the world redefined themselves in the face of tragedy, displacement, and dispersion during the subsequent Jewish diaspora. Join Samuel D. Kassow, Charles Northam Professor of History at Trinity College, and Deborah Dash Moore, Editor in Chief of the Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization, for a discussion about Jewish writing during the Holocaust and the era of transformation that followed. This program is presented in partnership with the Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization.
