Call for Papers and Panel Proposals

29th Annual Jewish American and Holocaust Literature (JAHLit) Symposium

Meeting 27-29 October 2024

The Betsy Hotel, Miami Beach



The JAHLit Symposium organizing committee welcomes individual and panel 
proposals that address the subjects of Jewish, Jewish-American, and Holocaust 
literature and culture. We are especially interested in critical and 
theoretical approaches to Jewish literature and film but these subjects are 
intended to be broadly conceived and could include:



  *   New voices in Jewish American literature
  *   Transnational Jewish literature
  *   Jewish literature of the Americas
  *   Holocaust literature
  *   The Holocaust in film and television
  *   New media including graphic novels and digital media



Early-career colleagues are especially encouraged to propose panels on topics 
in their research areas.



Individual paper proposals should be no longer than one double-spaced typed 
page and should be submitted with a short CV that contains contact information.



Organizers of complete panels should submit a cover sheet with the title of the 
panel, a brief description of the panel theme, the titles of each of the 
papers, and contact information for each presenter. The cover sheet should be 
followed by the three individual paper proposals and brief CVs. The organizer 
will serve as chair of the panel. No respondent is necessary.



The symposium will be in person only. Only individuals able to attend in person 
should submit proposals. Panel organizers should verify that each proposed 
panelist is able to attend in person.



Proposals should be emailed to Adam Goldwyn 
(adam.gold...@ndsu.edu). The deadline for 
submission of proposals is July 31, 2024.

Be sure to pay the registration fee of $175 
 
online when you submit your proposal (non-US residents can pay on site).

The conference will begin Sunday evening and conclude Tuesday evening. A 
nightly conference rate at The 
Betsy will be offered at $429 (before taxes, but resort fees are waived) from 
10/26-10/29-this is higher than years past but is still an extremely discounted 
rate. We encourage presenters to secure rooms (by phone-tell them you are with 
JAHLit) early as there are limited rooms at the conference rate.

A less expensive option is the nearby Henrosa 
Hotel. Nightly rate for Oct 26 is $225; rate for Oct 27-29 is $155. The group code 
for use when booking is JAHLC2. This rate will expire October 7th. The rate 
does not include the daily resort fee of $32 per room per day that includes for 
all guests in that room, breakfast, beach towels, beach chairs. complimentary 
alkaline water bottles in room, 24/7 coffee, and wine tastings from 4-6 daily. 
You are also welcome to use all of the facilities at The Betsy as a conference 
attendee.

Other less expensive but still lovely alternatives nearby include 
 Winter Haven 
Hotel and 
 Blue Moon 
Hotel.

[ha-Safran] Photos of Flora and New Hebrew Song Page

[Jacob Richman via Hasafran]

Hi Everyone!

Today, I took photos of flora in Ma'ale Adumim.
I posted them online at:
jr.co.il/ma/pic/2024/ma1539.htm

I also created a new Hebrew song page:
Malchut Hachermon - The Kingdom of Mount Hermon
jr.co.il/malchut-hachermon.htm

Reminder:
There are 9 Hebrew Purim song pages at:
jr.co.il/hotsites/purim.htm#songs

Each of the pages includes Hebrew videos, Hebrew lyrics,
English translations and English transliterations.
Enjoy!

Please share. Thank you!

Please continue to pray for and support Israel.

May the wounded have a complete and speedy recovery.
May the hostages be freed now.
May God protect the IDF, the police, the security forces
and all of Am Yisrael.

Shavua Tov and Chodesh Tov!
