Description

Den irske forfatter Simon Lewis, der har skrevet den prisvindende digtsamling Jewtown, vil fortælle den fascinerende historie om den jødiske migration fra Kovno i Litauen til Cork i Irland i det 19. århundrede. Hvordan et lille samfund skabte grundlaget for moderne irsk-jødisk liv, og hvordan det bidrog til at forme Irlands litterære, kunstneriske og politiske landskab. Gennem sin egen poesi vil Lewis vække sine forfædres kampe, ambitioner, modstandskraft og især håb om en bedre fremtid til live. Desuden vil han udforske nogle markante irsk-jødiske personligheder, sande såvel som fiktive. Foredraget er på engelsk.
