SUMMARY:Testifying to the Truth: Half-Day Virtual Workshop for Faculty
DESCRIPTION:Dr Eva Reichmann\, c. 1950s and an example of a survivor account. \nThe Wiener Holocaust Library is pleased to invite applications from teaching or research faculty for a half-day virtual workshop centred on its new digital resource\, Testifying to the Truth\, which features more than 1\,000 eyewitness accounts of refugees and survivors of the Holocaust\, newly digitised and translated into English for the first time. The resource will continue to grow as more accounts are translated and published online. We welcome applications from teaching or research university faculty at any career stage who are interested in learning more about this collection and incorporating the materials into their teaching or research in a variety of disciplines\, including but not limited to Holocaust and genocide studies\, history\, digital humanities\, sociology\, oral history\, anthropology and linguistics. \nThe workshop will feature sessions on the history of the collection and its metadata\, demonstration of search strategies\, the methodology used by Dr Eva Reichmann to gather the materials\, as well as key themes related to oral histories/testimony\, gender\, age\, resistance and rescue\, among others. Sessions will include short presentations\, demonstrations and time for discussion\, and will be led by Dr Christine Schmidt (The Wiener Holocaust Library)\, Dr Barbara Warnock (The Wiener Holocaust Library)\, Leah Sidebotham (The Wiener Holocaust Library)\, Dr Rebecca Clifford (Swansea University)\, and Professor Dan Stone (Royal Holloway\, University of London) and Dr Madeline White (Royal Holloway\, University of London)\, among other speakers. There will also be a short list of recommended readings ahead of the workshop\, which will primarily include examples of eyewitness accounts in the collection. \nThe workshop is free to attend but spaces are limited to ensure a fruitful and constructive discussion.
