  About the Lecture: Buczacz is the hometown of the only 
  Hebrew author who has won the Nobel Prize for Literature, 
  Shmuel Yosef Agnon; of the great Polish Jewish historian, 
  Emanuel Ringelblum; of Sigmund Freud’s grandparents; of 
  Simon Wiesenthal; and of Bartov’s own mother. It was 
  founded in the 14th century as a private Polish town owned 
  by a noble family. Bartov is particularly interested in 
  the relationships between its Ukrainian, Polish and Jewish 
  residents, whose ethnicity, religion and trades differed.

  About the Speaker: Omer Bartov is the John P. Birkelund 
  Distinguished Professor of European History at Brown 
  University and considered one of the world’s leading 
  authorities on the subject of genocide. He is the author 
  of six books and the editor of three volumes, including 
  Murder in Our Midst: The Holocaust, Industrial Killing, 
  and Representation (Oxford UP, 1996), which received the 
  Fraenkel Prize in Contemporary History; Mirrors of 
  Destruction: War, Genocide, and Modern Identity (Oxford 
  UP, 2000), an analysis of the relationship between total 
  war and state-organized genocide and the emergence of 
  modern identity; and The “Jew” in Cinema: From the Golem 
  to Don’t Touch My Holocaust (Indiana UP, 2005). As a 
  Guggenheim Fellow (2003-2004), Professor Bartov researched 
  the history of interethnic relations and violence in the 
  East Galician town of Buczacz. He received his Ph.D. from 
  Oxford.
