Dr Anthony Grenville will discuss his book, Encounters with Albion: Britain and the British in Texts by Jewish Refugees after 1933. The book sets out to analyse the image of British society as conveyed in over 50 texts by Jewish refugees from Nazism - novels, memoirs, autobiographies, diaries and collections of letters.
Dr Anthony Grenville, whose parents came to Britain from Vienna in 1938, lectured in German at the Universities of Reading, Bristol and Westminster from 1971 to 1996. He is Consultant Editor of the Association of Jewish Refugees Journal and Chair of the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies, University of London.
