The 2022 Solomon-Tenenbaum Lecture will be delivered by Dr. Sander Gilman, Distinguished Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences and Professor of Psychiatry at Emory University, where he is also the Director of the Program in Psychoanalysis and the Health Sciences Humanities Initiative. Gilman is a cultural and literary historian, and author/editor of a whopping eighty books. An authority on visual stereotyping and race in contemporary medicine, Gilman's scholarship brings together the fields of History, Jewish Studies, and the Medical Humanities. The evening lecture, "How Does One Become An Antisemite?," will center on the images, stereotypes, and fantasies about Jews -- their bodies, their "essence" in modern society -- and place them in a historical context. How have perceptions about Jews been created and employed historically?
