Open to adults. Registration required. Guest lecturer, Mary Maudsley, will speak on Women in genocide with emphasis on women during the Holocaust. This is a program presented in honor of Women's History Month.Lecture Description: For many years women did not emerge as a topic of interest in considering the Holocaust. This is surprising because, although all Jews and members of certain other groups were targeted for persecution and later for for death, women often experienced that same persecution differently from men. Maudsley suggests that there are no "lessons" to be learned from women in the Holocaust. We can only observe and describe how the impact of catastrophe affects women differently from men. Mary Maudsley is a retired trial lawyer; her 40+ years of practice overlapped with 20+ years of teaching in the Holocaust and Genocide program at Stockton University. Since her retirement from Stockton, Maudsley has been substitute teaching in Pleasantville, and tutoring middle school students and law school hopefuls. She has also been an instructor in the Stockton FELS lecture series. In addition to several book reviews, she has published an article: Justice and the Courtroom: Jewish Collaboration in Hungary The Case of Rabbi Bela Berend, The Rosenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies of the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, 2017.Maudsley has been reading about the Holocaust since 1959, before the word Holocaust was used to describe the genocide of the Jews during WWII. When Stockton offered a Master's degree in Holocaust and Genocide, she enrolled in the very first class.
