Class Description:
ENG 410/510, Taught by Michael Weingrad

In the early 20th century it is estimated that Jews comprised as much as one third of the population of the city of Baghdad. This course looks at novels, stories, and memoirs dealing with the Jewish experience in this extraordinary city, as well as the ways in which this experience has been memorialized after it came to an abrupt end in the 1950s.
