Culture shaped by history : the Jewish community of Janina, Greece
Annette B. Fromm, Florida International University Professor of Museum Studies, delivers a talk entitled, "Culture Shaped by History: The Jewish Community of Janina, Greece." Using a slideshow, Fromm describes how Jews came to Janina, how they developed a unique, cultural enclave, and how the culture and practices have been preserved even as the Jews emigrated to the U.S. She discusses on weddings and other rituals which have survived in the New World and describes her family connections. Question and answer concludes the session. Fromm speaks at the 2013 Ada Finifter Memorial Lecture convened by MSU Librarian Deborah Margolis. Part of the MSU Libraries' Colloquia Series held at the MSU Main Library.
