Holocaust Memoir in Academia

Raiders of the Unknown (Mystic-Skeptic Radio)

In this week's show we feature professor Charles Fischer who teaches humanities at Everett Community College in Washington, focusing on classic literature including Homer, Sophocles and Shakespeare. With a background in ancient Greek, a Ph.D. in English combined with a Master of Theological Studies degree from the Harvard Divinity School, Charles is uniquely positioned to draw on the events of ancient history as the basis of fiction. He lives in Seattle with his wife, the author Lisa Wogan.

Our topic is teaching "Holocaust" memoir in academia. We discuss books such as Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and Art Spiegelman Maus: A Survivor's Tale among other literature that Mr. Fischer examines with his students.
