The Image of the Other: An evening of learning with Rachel Korazim
October 24, 2022 at 7:30 pm - 9:15 pm
Join us as we explore the images of the Arab in modern Israeli literature. Arabs have been portrayed in Israeli literature from the very early days of the first Aliya. Their image constantly changes from romantic biblical figures to suspicious enemies and all the way to neighbors and critical witnesses of Israel’s ever-changing reality. We will read short excerpts from works by David Grossman, A.B. Yehoshua, Savyon Liebrecht and others.
