  • Fall 2005 an Interesting Acquisition
    THE BULLETIN OF Volume 10, Number 1 Fall 2005 An Interesting Acquisition The Center for Holocaust Studies recently joined with Special Collec- tions to purchase a pair of artists’ books by Tatana Kellner. Kellner, a photog- rapher, printmaker, and book artist based at the Women’s Studio Workshop in Rosendale, New York, is also the daughter of Holocaust survivors. The two volumes B-11226: Fifty years of silence, Eugene Kellner’s story and 71125: Fifty years of silence, Eva Kellner’s story give artistic expression to her parents’ memories of internment in several concentration and extermi- nation camps. The titles come from the parents’ de- cades-long refusal to talk about their experience, a silence not uncommon among survivors. What is unusual is what Kellner has done with their hand- written testimony. Artists’ books are handmade volumes, unified in content in such a way as to have a singular impact on the reader. Kellner’s two creations are striking examples of the genre, presented in simple wooden boxes marked solely by the number painted on each lid. When the cover is removed, a flesh-colored papier-mâché cast of the parent’s forearm is revealed, complete with tattooed number. The pages of the books, die-cut to fit around the cast, contain two sets of text. Images of the hand-written Czech accounts are printed on translucent pages, while the English translations are superimposed on contemporary and historical images. Family photographs add a personal context and provide specificity to the horrors of the Holocaust. continued on page

The topic: Identity figures Nationalism, populism and intolerance are global problems that affect Europe at its core. In this project we are particularly interested in the cultural dimension of this. Because our image of Europe is shaped - more than by politicians or political programmes - by identity-generating figures who are more likely to be associated with art, culture and intellectual life. Figures such as Cervantes, Shakespeare, Einstein, Simone de Beauvoir, Marie Curie, da Vinci, Goethe - artists, scientists and explorers stand for an European identity and forms of cosmopolitarism. All these figures show tolerant perspectives that can create identity. Cultural identity is always the result of concrete personal experiences - part of one's life story. Contemporary theatre often deals - for example in documentary concepts and in participatory projects, with biographical aspects, with the personal experiences of the participants.

  • Summer Reading 05.Qxp
    Western Reserve Academy Summer Reading Program 2005 Western Reserve Academy English Department Required Summer 2005 Reading For the Class of 2009 Old School, Tobias Wolff For the Class of 2008 Siddhartha, Hermann Hesse For the Class of 2007 My Antonia, Willa Cather ALL BOOKS ARE AVAILABLE AT WRA’S CAMPUS BOOKSTORE Western Reserve Academy Summer Reading 2005 Most members of the Reserve community find pleasures in reading. For those of us tied to the academic calendar, summers and holidays give us what we need most – time. With that in mind, we offer students this booklet of recom- mended books for summer reading. Several of these titles have been suggested over the years by WRA students, faculty members and their families, and the WRA librarians. Other titles are recommended by the American Library Association for Young Adults. This list is updated and titles rotated annually by the John D. Ong Library staff and is intended to provide some variety: classic to recently published titles, rela- tively easy to challenging reading levels, fiction and non-fiction selections cover- ing diverse topics, and a list of recommended websites for further suggestions for award-winning books and titles in a specific genre. In general, books included in the WRA curriculum are not listed. A few titles have frank passages that mirror some aspects of life explicitly. Therefore, we urge parents to explore the titles your teenagers choose and discuss the book as well as the choice with them. This list is accessible on the WRA website on the John D. Ong Library home page at http://library.wra.net.
