The Emile Zola Chair for Interdisciplinary Human Rights Dialogue Will Strive to Strengthen the Human Rights Ethos, Values and Forces in the Israeli Society
VISION The Emile Zola Chair for Interdisciplinary Human Rights Dialogue will strive to strengthen the human rights ethos, values and forces in the Israeli society. It will do so through interdisciplinary educational, cultural and research activities; dissemination of relevant information, support for and cooperation with NGOs committed to human rights and existing human rights centers in Israeli academic institutions, and the encouragement of individuals whose work for human rights is exemplary, in Israel. The Chair honors the legacy of Emile Zola. Emile Zola was a fiction writer. It is not, however, for his artistic endeavors but for his humanistic stand; his ability to "speak truth to power" when that truth had few friends; his willingness to pay a personal price (which included loss of membership otherwise granted at the much coveted Academie Française; a criminal trial, conviction and exile) that he is remembered. This stand, and "the March for Truth" that he initiated with his J'Accuse had an enormous impact in terms of both democracy (the real winners of the "Dreyfus Affair" – the happy end of which put to rest the ancient regime – are democratic governance and the values of freedom of speech, free press and humanity). In a sense, the essential ethos of what does it mean to be a person committed to humanity and human rights, of the impact a person can have and of the wider significance of that impact, can be taught through this story. Establishing the Emile Zola Chair for Human Rights not only reflects a moral duty and pays a debt of honor, it also serves as a reminder, a model and a sign of hope: it is to remind the Israeli society that the national enterprise need not be carried out at the expense of a humanistic commitment to marginalized communities; that its very existence has been thus nourished. -

The Performative Utterance “I” Theatricality and Subversion of Identity in the Works of Eyal Weiser Sharon Aronson-Lehavi
The Performative Utterance “I” Theatricality and Subversion of Identity in the Works of Eyal Weiser Sharon Aronson-Lehavi Eyal Weiser is an Israeli playwright and theatre director whose works complexly interrogate and explore constructions of Israeli identity, first and foremost by addressing Israeli identity/(ies) as constructions. His works thus offer a critique of historical, social, and cultural processes that were (and are) intended to instigate and naturalize an idea of a collective Jewish-Israeli identity. By unmasking identity as a construction — as a result of ideological, educational, and political mechanisms — Weiser’s works destabilize the borders between lies and truth, fiction and real- ity, and fabrication and authenticity. Over the past decade, Weiser has emerged as a significant Sharon Aronson-Lehavi is Chair of the Department of Theatre Arts at Tel Aviv University and Academic Director of the TAU Theatre. She is the author of Street Scenes: Late Medieval Acting and Performance (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011) and Gender and Feminism in Modern Theatre (Open University Press, in Hebrew, 2013), editor of Wanderers and Other Israeli Plays (Seagull Books, In Performance series, 2009), and coeditor with Atay Citron and David Zerbib of Performance Studies in Motion: International Perspectives and Practices in the Twenty-First Century (Bloomsbury, 2015).

doi: https://doi.org/10.26262/gramma.v22i1.6234 THE TROJAN WAR ON THE CONTEMPORARY WESTERN STAGE: TRANSVERSAL READINGS Sylvie Jouanny Theatre replays the past in the present. What does it tell us of the Trojan War, that symbolic event in Greek culture? This paper offers a reflection on the imaginary and the portrayal of the Trojan War on the contemporary western stage based on the last twenty years’ drama criticism in the newspaper Le Monde, on published and unpublished pieces over the same period and on essays about the original phe- nomenon and, more generally, its handing down. The subject has usually been ap- proached with some measure of realism: a mimetic treatment has little interest for audiences, but an oneiric, poetic, mythological approach may spark an enthusiastic response. This more symbolic aesthetic makes the Trojan War an archetypal con- flict which inspires a theatrical search for answers but also a message of hope: what should we conclude/how can we reconcile them both? q n the words of Malraux in Les Conquérants, “the Renaissance created Antiquity as much as Antiquity created the Renaissance” (1928). If Iour times, essentially preoccupied with modern issues, preclude such comparisons, we can at least enquire into contemporary perceptions of An- tiquity and their incorporation in our heritage. The Trojan War, iconic peri- od of Greek culture, constitutes fertile ground for study: its ten years of war, its controversial historical authenticity, its retelling through the Iliad and the Odyssey, its events, and its participants, both real and epic, which begin in the realms of vaudeville, with Helen’s abduction, and finish in those of fairy tales, the Greek victory at the end of a turbulent campaign and an unforget- table stratagem ..
