Assistant Professor Emily Makas was selected to participate in the 2012 Hess Seminar for Faculty at the Center for Advanced Studies of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, January 4-10, 2012 in Washington, DC.
According to the organizers, "The Seminar will explore how the Holocaust created, changed, and destroyed places with particular meanings to those who inhabited them. Drawing on a range of primary sources and secondary literature, seminar participants will examine a number of Holocaust landscapes (forest, ghetto, rail, camp, attic, road) in order to reveal how perpetrators made and remade the European landscape, how victims experienced (and reshaped) these landscapes, what bystanders witnessed there, and these sites’ postwar histories of commemoration and erasure."
Professor Makas is a leading scholar on Central European cities. Her research focuses on the relationships between architecture, cities, heritage, memory, identity, and politics. She is co-editor of Capital Cities in the Aftermath of Empires: Planning in Central and Southeastern Europe (Routledge, 2010, with T.D. Conley) and the monograph Architectural Conservation in Europe and the Americas (Wiley, 2011, co-authored with J.H. Stubbs). Professor Makas is also leading a cross-disciplinary Summer Study Abroad Program in Central Europe, May–June, 2012.
Chris Jarrett, Director of the School, announced the results of SoA's inaugural Faculty Research Grant program.
