SUMMARY:Adult Education Program: Susan Sontag
DESCRIPTION:(Adult Education Event)\nSusan Sontag: Cultural Politics and Moral Imperative \n\n\nIn the early 1960s\, Susan Sontag (1933-2004) began publishing critical essays on postwar avant-garde culture.  As time went on\, however\, she turned her attention to exposing incipient fascism\, political scapegoating\, writers in distress\, and to mass victimization – in this last regard\, even putting her life in danger. \nAbout the Speaker\nDr. Barry Seldes (Political Science\, Rutgers)\, retired Professor at Rider University\, is the author of the book “Leonard Bernstein: The Political Life of an American Musician (U California  Press); and “Sensibilities for the New Man\, Politics\, Poetics and Graphics” in Voices of Revolution (ed. Patricia Railing\, MIT and the British Library). His essays are published by\, among others\, Cambridge University Press and the University of Rochester Press.  He has lectured at the Jewish Historical Museum in Amsterdam\, and the American Studies Institute at the University of Alcalá in Madrid.  Professor Seldes accepted an invitation of the Library of Congress to write on Leonard Bernstein’s inaugural premiere conducting the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. \n\n\nPlease email the Program Planning Committee (Claudia Farber\, Joyce Orenstein & Judy Stern) with your suggestions for speakers and/or programs\, or to join our Committee and help plan our upcoming events!
