Faculty Publications
The catalogue for the exhibition "The Light of the Revival: Stained-Glass Designs for Restituted Synagogues in Ukraine by Eugeny Kotlyar" held at Fordham University from September 10-December 10, 2023 offers a broad perspective on the revival of Ukrainian synagogues after Ukraine’s independence.

Two early works shown here were the first samples of stained-glass designs for modern Ukrainian synagogues, which set a new trend.

Confronting Hate Antisemitism, Racism, And The Resistance, Magda Teter
Faculty Publications
Antisemitism and anti-Black racism have often been viewed as separate issues. The exhibit “Confronting Hate: Racism, Antisemitism, and The Resistance,” a fruit of the work of students in HIST 4312: Antisemitism and Racism taught by Professors Westenley (Wes) Alcenat and Magda Teter in 2021-2022, seeks to open a conversation about historical and phenomenological connections between racism and antisemitism.

Arsinoe Ii As Epic Queen: Encomiastic Allusion In Theocritus, Idyll 15*, Andrew Foster
Faculty Publications
This paper will illustrate how Idyll 15’s intertextual affiliation with the Odyssey and Greek historiography embellishes the poem’s explicit encomium of Arsinoe II.
