A reminder... Wednesday, November 3 Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies Seminar on Russian and East European Jewish Studies "From 'Narodnichestvo' to the Jewish 'Narod': Lev Shternberg's Search for a Secular Humanistic Judaism" Sergei Kan, Professor of Anthropology and Native American Studies, Dartmouth College; Center Associate, Davis Center 1730 Cambridge Street, 3rd Floor, Room S354 4:15-6:00 p.m. Lev Shternberg (1861-1927) is best known as one of the leading anthropologists of the late imperial and early Soviet Russia. However, he was also an active participant in the last stage of the radical Narodnichestvo movement of the 1880s and played a prominent role in cultural and political activities of the liberal Jewish intelligentsia of St. Petersburg in the first two decades of the 20th century. Drawing on the material from his recently published biography of Shternberg, Sergei Kan will discuss Shternberg's vision of a humanistic cultural Judaism that would bring the Russified Jewish intelligentsia back to the Jewish narod. *********************************** Please note future meetings of the Seminar on Russian and East European Jewish Studies: Wednesday, December 1 Topic, TBA Anna Shternshis, Associate Professor of Yiddish Studies, Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures and Centre for Diaspora and Transnational Studies, University of Toronto Wednesday, December 8 "The Russian Canon as Prooftext: Sholem Aleichem Reads the Russians, from Gogol to Gorky" Amelia Glaser, Associate Professor of Russian Literature, University of California, San Diego (All seminars in this series will be held in CGIS South, Room S354, 4:15-6:00pm.) --- Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies Harvard University 1730 Cambridge Street, 3rd Floor Cambridge, MA 02138 T 617.495.4037 F 617.495.8319 http://www.daviscenter.fas.harvard.edu
