SUMMARY:Fordham-NYPL Lecture Series in Jewish Studies: Ilan Stavans\, "Notes on Hispanic Antisemitism"
DESCRIPTION:Antisemitism cannot be studied in the abstract\, for its varieties are always tied to specific historical circumstances. These reflections by internationally renowned\, award-winning public intellectual Ilan Stavans\, author of The Seventh Heaven: Travels through Jewish Latin America and other works\, on the varieties of Hispanic antisemitism\, contemplate its vicissitudes and principal ideologues\, from 1492 to the present\, as it has mutated from a religious-based hatred to an economic rivalry and now a political ideology with catastrophic consequences. \nIlan Stavans is Lewis-Sebring Professor of Humanities and Latin American and Latino Culture at Amherst College\, the publisher of Restless Books\, and a consultant to the Oxford English Dictionary. His work\, translated into two dozen languages\, has been adapted into film\, TV\, radio\, and theater. His latest book is Conversations on Dictionaries: The Universe in a Book (Cambridge University Press). This academic year\, Stavans is a New York Public Library-Fordham University fellow on Jewish Studies\, completing a book on Hispanic antisemitism.
