  • Prof. Deborah Lipstadt (Emory University) on antisemitism past and present
    History Matters brings prominent historians to the Center for Jewish History to reflect on the importance of the study of the past for understanding the present. Each evening of the series will offer rich conversation between a leading historian and a moderator about how that historian’s research illuminates timely issues. In putting historical scholarship into dialogue with present-day concerns, this series will highlight the importance of history - and especially Jewish history - in public discourse.
    The History Matters Series is generously sponsored by Dina and Jonathan Leader.
    Presented by: the Center for Jewish History

    My 'anybody can do logistics' story:
    My cousin lives in a community in North Carolina too small to have a resident rabbi.
    Being gentile, her volunteer job is to drive the guest rabbi in from the bus station, late Sabbath evenings, and back the next day.
    So this Presbyterian is a mainstay of the shul.

      Oy vey! I shall take my own advice to others and delve into my own well-thumbed copy of Maimonides's great work, 'A Guide for the Perplexed'. Wait a minute. I think I've just cottoned on to the enigmatic point you make: the metaphoric approach you apply here is but a ruse to get us halfwits ready to rumble just what it is you're trying to say. Got it! However, I suggest you edit out the bit about the Rabbi being driven from the bus station "late Sabbath evening". Got that, have you?

    I wonder why these people always feel the need to legislate that you "believe" them? Thats odd. Usually the TRUTH speaks for itself.

      @@garyvanarsdale3142 I'm not aware of a "debate" between them in the normal sense. In fact, it would surprise me if she had ever voluntarily given him a platform to debate her, since that would imply a level of respect for him and his "ideas" that she would almost certainly be unwilling to grant him. She did attend the libel trial, but for legal reasons she didn't testify. You can read about the trial in two books: Lipstadt, History on Trial; Evans, Lying about Hitler. The titles might be different depending on whether you're in the USA or Britain.

      @@jonbornholdt1790 Thanks Jon. I had family who went into those camps. Ad hominem's are the weak man's debating tactic. (I always look for them). Irving's account on our fire bombing of Dresden was heralded by all historians of that era due to his unrelenting hunt for original source documentation. It was indeed a bestseller. By many, Lipstadt's refusal to debate this famed historian on one aspect of World War II is not brave, wise, or standing on principle. It is seen by many as cowardly and could have helped put Irving in his place.
