SUMMARY:War | Power | Culture
DESCRIPTION:Since the end of World War II\, numerous large-scale wars\, particularly in the Greater Middle East\, have not only redefined states but have also transformed societies and cultures in their wake. This series brings together acclaimed novelists\, scholars\, and journalists from around the world to discuss how war is represented historically and culturally\, how the humanities address concepts of human rights in curbing the spread of war\, and how lives bear the traces of history’s conflicts. \nAll events will take place at Swarthmore College and are free! \nSarah Aziza in Conversation with Elise Mitchell\nMon.\, Sept. 29\, 6-8 p.m.\nIntercultural Center\, Dome Room \nSarah Aziza\, Palestinian American writer\, translator\, and artist with roots in Ibdis and Deir al-Balah\, Gaza\, will read and discuss her memoir\, The Hollow Half.
