Temple Israel of New Rochelle "With What Remains: Memory, Narrative, Story, History"

 
Friday, January 16, 2015  08:00am  05:00pm
   

     

Join us for a monthly series, to learn from experts in their fields,
and an opportunity to learn from one another.

Wednesday, January 21
11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.
“With What Remains: Memory,
Narrative, Story, History”
with Author, Alisse Waterston

Anthropologist and author Alisse Waterston describes the process of gathering information for her latest book, a story that is also a social history. “My Father’s Wars” is based on conversations, interviews, fieldnotes, photographs, letters, official documents and archives—materials that offer traces of the past.

Ms. Waterston is asking “Food for Thought” attendees to bring to the luncheon an “artifact” from home: a photograph, letter, document, or a book - an object that has meaning. These artifacts will prompt discussion on how one can move from story to larger history.

* $15 per person covers lecture, discussion and lunch

Let us know you’re coming by calling the Temple Office at (914) 235-1800
or visiting www.tinr.org under “Events” by Tuesday, January 20.

* If paid by credit card, an administrative fee will be added to the cost.
