Graduate Student Molly Krueger gives a paper at the GSA and starts a Leo Baeck Institute Fellowship to work on her dissertation.

Molly's paper was titled "'Was übrig bleibt:' Max Czollek and the ‘Lachrymose Aesthetic’ in Contemporary German-Jewish Poetry”; it was part of the panel “Jews - Holocaust - Poetry."  The LBI fellowship was awarded for her dissertation project with the working title, After Auschwitz: Contemporary German-Jewish Poetics and the Persistence of the Past). Since the grant is geographically flexible, she will spend a year in Berlin.
