A relationship between the photographic image as cultural artifact and the Holocaust as an historical
event and analyzing photographic images for use in the classroom were the topics explores
at this event which took place in CM110, West Windsor Campus
The lecture was hosted by MCCC
History Professor Craig Coenen who, with Professor Jack Tabor, led a Study Abroad
tour to Poland in 2013 that included visits to the Auschwitz and Birkenau
concentration camps, the Treblinka killing center, and the Warsaw Ghetto.
During his lecture, Tabor explored
the relationship between the photographic image as cultural artifact, and the
Holocaust as an historical event. His talk examined the ways photography
served the ability to understand, and to some extent bear witness, to the
plight of the millions who perished at the hands of the Nazis.
