When considering literature by Sephardic Jews, we tend to think of works by those with roots in North Africa and the Arab world.
Our course will indeed look at these writers. However, we will also read works by Sephardic writers whose heritage is based in Europe, others who write about the Holocaust and more recent authors whose texts are interlaced with aspects of the identity politics of the 21st century Sephardic community.
Writers include: Grace Aguilar, Emma Lazarus, Primo Levi, Sami Shalom Chetrit, and more.
