Description

This is an introductory course. Its main purpose is to present students with the opportunity to assess alternative ways of approaching and describing the realities and representations of the post-Holocaust legacy of the Jewish presence in Poland––through an appreciation of Jewish religious and cultural achievements over many centuries (and how these are displayed in museums or otherwise treated as ‘Jewish heritage’), through an understanding of the Holocaust as it unfolded in the region (and how it is commemorated, for example through monuments), and through a general examination of contemporary memory processes at work, by both Jews and non-Jews. The focus will be on the area of former Galicia in southern Poland, and the course will include three study visits––to three local synagogues, two local Jewish museums, and to one local Jewish cemetery.

Assessment

Note: (a) To qualify for assessment, attendance at the classes and study visits is obligatory. Students missing three or more lectures (or more than one double session or study visit) will need to meet with the course tutor with a clear proposal how they intend to make up for the missing classes. Missing 50% or more of the classes will result in failure of the course and the need to retake it the following year. (b) However, students who have completed the course tutor’s ‘Introduction to European Jewish Religion, Culture, and Society’ course are exempt from attending sessions 1, 2, and 3. (c) Prior confirmation with the course tutor of a student’s intention to make an oral presentation at the student seminar in session 12 of the course, together with a provisional topic, will be required by session 9.

Assessment consists of two parts:

(1) End-of-course oral presentation at the student seminar in session 12 (valued at 30% of the final grade for the assessment): students, either on their own or in a ‘group presentation’ of two people, should speak on a relevant topic of their choice for approx. 10–15 minutes, depending on the number of students in the course. A ‘relevant topic’ for this purpose means something focused on some aspect of the Jewish heritage of Polish Galicia, although reference to wider issues of heritage or Jewish heritage generally is of course welcome. Marks will be based on three equally-ranked criteria: content (research, knowledge, and understanding of the chosen topic), quality of argument and style (i.e. communication skills), and participation in the end-of-course seminar discussion.

(2) Written essay, prepared at home (valued at 70% of the final grade for the assessment): “Imagine that you are the curator of a small new photographic exhibition in a local school in southern Poland on the subject of the contemporary Jewish heritage in Poland (not necessarily the Jewish heritage of the actual locality). Choose four present-day (not historical) photos taken at different Jewish heritage sites of your choice in or relating to somewhere in Polish Galicia––they may be photos that have already been published (for example, in Rediscovering Traces of Memory or in the press), or they may be photos of your own or of a friend. You may include Holocaust sites if you wish, but if so they should not be more than two out of your four photos. You should write (a) captions (minimum 200 words, maximum 250 words each) for each of these photos; and (b) an essay of 3,000 words briefly introducing your choice of photos but concentrating on explaining your thinking and philosophy underlying the texts of your four captions (with reference to relevant literature as appropriate), and in particular explaining alternative ideas for caption texts that you have considered but rejected. Sources (and a bibliography) should be routinely provided as in any academic paper: the sources of your photos as well as bibliographic references for all factual material cited in your essay. Please note that a ‘present-day’ photo means a photo taken at any time since 1989; proposals of historical photos (defined for this purpose as pre-war photos) will not be considered for assessment.”
