SUMMARY:The Complaint Desk: Locating American Jewish Literature's 'Russian' Authenticity in the History of Listening
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Gabriella Safran\, Eva Chernov Lokey Chair of Jewish Studies\, has written on Russian\, Polish\, Yiddish\, and French literatures and cultures.  Her most recent book\,Wandering Soul:  The Dybbuk’s Creator\, S. An-sky (Harvard\, 2010)\, is a biography of an early-twentieth-century Russian-Yiddish writer who was also an ethnographer\, a revolutionary\, and a wartime relief worker. \nSafran teaches and writes on Russian literature\, Yiddish literature\, folklore\, and folkloristics.  She is now working on two monograph projects: one on the collection and curating of the Russian peasant voice\, by writers\, lexicographers\, ethnographers\, and musicologists\, from the 1830s to the 1910s\, and the other on the popularization of notions of Jewish voice\, by writers\, speakers\, and performers\, in the Russian space and in the United States\, from the 1870s through the 1920s. \n  \nOrganized by: Slavic Languages and Literatures \nCo-sponsored by: Stroum Center for Jewish Studies\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, Cinema & Media\, and the Department of English

SUMMARY:A Brief Stop on the Road from Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:On August 2\, 1947 a young man gets off a train in a small Swedish town to begin his life anew. Having endured the ghetto of Lodz\, the death camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau\, the slave camps and transports during the final months of Nazi Germany\, his final challenge is to survive the survival.\nJoin Göran Rosenberg as he discusses his intelligent and deeply moving book\, A Brief Stop on the Road from Auschwitz\, in which he returns to his own childhood to tell the story of his father: walking at his side\, holding his hand\, trying to get close to him. It is also the story of the chasm between the world of the child\, permeated by the optimism\, progress\, and collective oblivion of postwar Sweden\, and the world of the father\, darkened by the long shadows of the past.\nWant to learn more about A Brief Stop on the Road from Auschwitz? Check out Roger Cohen’s New York Times review of this award-winning book\, “Where the Road From Auschwitz Ends.”\n \n \nGöran Rosenberg  was born in Sweden in 1948 and is one of Sweden’s best known authors. In 1970 he left academia to work as a journalist for Swedish television\, radio\, and print. He is the author of several books\, including the highly acclaimed The Lost Land: A Personal History of Zionism and Messianism and The State of Israel.

SUMMARY:Jewish Peoplehood: An American Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Although fewer American Jews today describe themselves as religious\, they overwhelmingly report a strong sense of belonging to the Jewish people. Indeed\, Jewish peoplehood has eclipsed religion—as well as ethnicity and nationality—as the essence of what binds Jews around the globe to one another. In this exciting book launch event\, Prof. Noam Pianko will highlight the current significance and future relevance of “peoplehood” by tracing the rise\, transformation\, and return of this novel term. \nFind out more about Prof. Pianko’s book Jewish Peoplehood: An American Innovation! \nLight Kosher reception to follow book reading. Prof. Noam Pianko is the Samuel N. Stroum Chair of Jewish Studies and Associate Professor in the Jackson School of International Studies. Pianko also directs the Samuel and Althea Stroum Center for Jewish Studies and serves as the Herbert and Lucy Pruzan Professor of Jewish Studies. He received his Ph.D. in Religious Studies/Judaic Studies from Yale University in 2004 and joined the Jackson School faculty as an Assistant Professor in the fall of that year. Prof. Pianko’s research interests include modern Jewish history\, Zionism\, and American Judaism. \n

SUMMARY:Baladino in Concert at SJCC
DESCRIPTION:With its members hailing from Berlin and Tel Aviv\, Baladino is a Mediterranean folk band that offers fresh\, yet deeply authentic interpretations of Sephardic and Ladino melodies and brings this tradition back into full\, fresh dialogue with its trans-Mediterranean past\, using extended technique\, subtle electronics and improvisation to dust off the predominant heavy-handed approach to Ladino music. With stunning vocals\, unexpected instruments\, and a pitch-perfect sense of arrangement\, the Israeli group melds everything from Egyptian darbuka to Armenian duduk\, from Ladino classics to rarely heard tunes\, into a sonically vibrant\, organic whole. During Baladino’s live performances\, songs often form a jumping-off point for instrumental improvisations driven by Mediterranean-Gypsy grooves\, yet embracing rock and electronic influences. \n  \n \n  \nTo purchase tickets and find out more\, please visit the Stroum Jewish Community Center online! \nSTUDENTS: Get $5 off your tickets using this promo code: UW5OFF \n  \nOrganized by the Stroum Jewish Community Center
