- Description:
- Dr. Warren Rosenberg, Professor of English at Wabash College, delivers a talk entitled, "Spielberg, Levinson, Mamet: Violence and the Jewish (Male) Director," for the Third Annual Esther and George Kessler Lecture on Jewish Film and Media. Rosenberg examines the historic ambivalence towards the ideas of manhood. He suggests that these notions stem from centuries of oppression and the clash of Western ideals of masculinity with Eastern European rabbinical injunctions against violence. Rosenberg talks about writers and filmmakers and uses excerpts from films to demonstrate his thesis that the suppressed rage is evident. Rosenberg answers questions from the audience. Professor Keely Stauter-Halsteadl, acting director of the Michigan State University Jewish Studies Program, convenes the program. Part of the Michigan State University Libraries' Colloquia Series. Held at the MSU Main Library.
