THEME: SOCIAL IMAGINARY
Thank you for joining us at this year's events. Special thanks to our sponsors, the Townsend Center for the Humanities and the Department of Near Eastern Studies.
We are currently planning next year's theme and calendar of events and will post that information here and to our mailing list some time during the summer.
What is the Memory and identity working group?
The Memory and Identity Working Group of the Department of Near Eastern Studies of the University of California, Berkeley exists to foster scholarship and encourage dialogue across the department's diverse traditions.
The working group revolves around the concept of Memory and Identity, a theoretical approach to understanding the formation of history and culture evidenced in texts, film, and other media. This year's theme is the Social Imaginary.
The Memory and Identity Working Group is sponsored by the Doreen B. Townsend Center for the Humanities and the Department of Near Eastern Studies of the University of California, Berkeley.
