Faculty Member Published In Academic Journal

Dr. Leah Sievers has been published in Dapim - Studies on the Holocaust, a bilingual academic journal published annually by the Institute for Research on the Holocaust at the University of Haifa and the Ghetto Fighters House.

Dr. Sievers, who teaches Upper School English, wrote about how Holocaust museums create connections between Holocaust memory and the traumatic pasts of many nations and cultures in pursuit of a diverse, multidirectional museology of relevance. This effort exemplifies the museums’ collective function as moral institutions in the United States, she writes.
Dapim, which is published both in Hebrew and English, is an interdisciplinary publication which promotes the study of the Holocaust period and the issue of anti-Semitism through the various disciplines and methodologies.
