Fall 2022 seminar: Ph.D. candidate, romance studies
Judith Tauber is a doctoral student in Romance Studies. She has worked on the Red Brigades' interpretation of consensus, the representation of the Other in 1960s-1970s Italian protest music, and Siegfried Kracauer's political considerations behind Theory of Film as revealed by a close reading of his comments on neorealist films. In addition to the 1960s and 1970s, she focuses on social change, memory, the meanings of consensus and violence, and literary and cinematic representations of society. Thanks to her competency in six languages, her work tends to cross linguistic, cultural, and national boundaries.
