Veranstaltungen
Mit seinen wissenschaftlichen Veranstaltungen versucht das Wiener Wiesenthal Institut für Holocaust-Studien (VWI) die neuesten Ergebnisse im Bereich der Holocaust-, Genozid- und Rassismusforschung einem breiteren ebenso wie einem ausgewiesenen Fachpublikum regelmäßig näher zu bringen. Die unterschiedlichen Formate dieser über einen engen Wissenschaftsbegriff hinausweisenden Veranstaltungen, die von in einem kleinen Rahmen gehaltenen gehaltenen Vorträgen, den Simon Wiesenthal Lectures über für ein Fachpublikum interessante Workshops bis zu großen internationalen Tagungen, den Simon Wiesenthal Conferences reichen, spiegeln das breite Tätigkeitsfeld des Instituts wider.
Präsentationen von ausgewählten Neuerscheinungen zu den einschlägigen Themen des Instituts, Interventionen im öffentlichen Raum, die Filmreihe VWI Visuals und die Fachkolloquien der Fellows runden die Palette der Veranstaltungen des Instituts weiter ab.

Granick is co-investigating a British Arts and Humanities Research Council project on Jewish Country Houses, and leading its Holocaust research dimension. She will speak about different entry points the new research field of Jewish country house studies has opened up in relation to Holocaust and memory research, as well as in relation to heritage and educational practices. Stately houses associated with aristocracy and their legacy are a central feature of European heritage infrastructure today, but typically interpreted within national frameworks shaped by Christianity. Wealthy, emancipated Jews began acquiring these houses in the 19th century, entering aristocratic sociability as Europe began shifting towards republican forms of governance. Granick will discuss the fate of these families, their homes, and their relationship to other Jews during the Holocaust, and how the project is working with historic houses across Europe to tell Jewish stories after genocide. Jaclyn Granick is a Senior Lecturer in Modern Jewish History at Cardiff University. Her book International Jewish Humanitarianism in the Age of the Great War (Cambridge University Press) has won the National Jewish Book Award. Currently she is working on the project Jewish Country Houses. Please register at Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt!
