Dear Cz. List members
The Israel Genealogical Society is pleased to invite presentations from
potential speakers in English and/or Hebrew for the Fifth Annual One Day
Seminar on Jewish Genealogy. This year, the seminar will be held on Tuesday,
1 December 2009 at Beit Hatfutzot, Tel Aviv University
Our topic this year is - Family to Community: Preserving and Commemorating
Personal and Collective Memory, Past and Present
and I believe this group is doing just that. Let me explain a little what we
are aiming at.
Searching for family roots and origins often leads to the discovery of
ancestry in an historical perspective, thus revealing multilevel & layered
cultural traditions of the commun
In this coming one day seminar we would like to focus on the methods of
preserving the memory of vanished communities such as Galicia, & Bukovina
and more.
 We would like to explore the following subjects :Writing and publishing
Yizkor and Memorial Books,Restoration and Restitution of old time
cemeteries,Virtual Reconstruction of town and Imagined communities
(Electronically)
.Preservation of Costumes, artifacts, crafts and tastes
