Scholar, author, and Dartmouth professor of Jewish studies Susannah Heschel will speak at Wise Temple on the human spirit, in remembrance of the Holocaust. Heschel, the daughter of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel -- one of the leading Jewish theologians and Jewish philosophers of the 20th century -- focuses on Jewish-Christian relations in Germany during the 19th and 20th centuries, the history of biblical study, and the history of anti-Semitism.

The evening is a part of the Hornstein memorial Holocaust Lecture Series, which was established in memory of Lusia and Stephen Hornstein, longstanding Wise Temple members and Holocaust survivors who believed that the victims and survivors of the Shoah should not be forgotten.
