Activity: Visiting an external institution › Visiting an external academic institution
Description
Invited to hold an Isaacsohn and Andre Families' Research Fellowship within the Centre for German-Jewish Studies at the University of Sussex, collaborating on the Sussex Digital Holocaust Education Project.
The Sussex Digital Holocaust EducaFon project uses the Mass Observation Archives (housed within the University of Sussex's Special Collections) essentially to explore what people in Britain knew about the Holocaust whilst it was still unfolding. Through three workshops, the research group will investigate Mass Observation holdings, map traces, absences and connections within the sources, and reflect critically upon Holocaust pedgagogy in the digital age.
The project will result in an edited volume, published by Bloomsbury, within the Mass Observation Critical Series.
Chapters are due for submission in April 2024. Estimated publication date is December 2025.
