The Holocaust is one of the best-known, but least understood events in history. This course aims to improve participants’ understanding by exploring key issues and problems. Though taking a chronological approach, the course is not a straightforward history, but rather an exploration of key moments and debates that build to provide students with a greater understanding. Six two-hour sessions will be based around primary and secondary sources provided each week by the tutor, with a short lecture component to set out key information and questions. Students are encouraged to read as much or as little as they feel called to, though suggestions for preparatory reading will be given ahead of each seminar.

If you’re back from #Limmud and feel you need some more #AdultEd, there are still places on this course at the Highgate Literary and Scientific Institution from 17 January. £105 for six two-hour sessions. hlsi.org.uk/courses/hist...
