As part of the 2017-2018 Convocation Series at Fredonia, “Transformations”, please join the Archives & Special Collections of Reed Library and the Department of English in recognizing the 50th anniversary of the Stefan Zweig Collection at Reed Library and the 75th anniversary of the death of its creator, the Austrian author Stefan Zweig (1881-1942).
Zweig at Fredonia: 50 Years of Transformation will include three separate events in October and November 2017, all of which lend variant meanings to the theme of transformation by focusing on questions of exile, race, national identity/nationalism, and loss of cultural heritage.
All events are free and open to the public. For further information, please see the Zweig at Fredonia blog.
