Abstract
VARIATIONS ON A LEGEND: DICTIONARY OF lHE KIELCE POGROM is an
attempt to use an ethnographic technique and scope of inquiry to understand
the events on July 4, 1946, in the town of Kieke, in south central Poland.
Subsequently, this study focuses on the reinterpretation of the events, and
their cultural dissemination in the Polish and Jewish worlds.
This thesis, written at the University of Oregon, under the tutelage of
Professors David Frank, Kenneth Liberman, and Sharon Sherman, is based
on fieldwork and research in Poland, and the United States. This book-length
thesis is the culmination, the final focus, of my independent undergraduate
study in "Peace Studies in a Jewish Context."
