Of all subjects of scholarly inquiry, few could be more contentious than the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. How might we research and teach our way through it in an age of narrowing conversations? Two authors who have written extensively on the topic discuss their thoughts on engaging the history and contemporary politics of Palestine and Israel today. When seeking to reach a wider audience, what are the unwritten conventions (and expectations) that authors transgress at their peril? Exploring questions of identity, morality, authenticity, objectivity and the responsibility of those undertaking research to elucidate and inform, the panellists will draw on the challenges they have faced in seeking to make accessible, beyond academia, their most recent works. Seth Anziska will recount some of the reactions he encountered after publishing his book Preventing Palestine: A Political History from Camp David to Oslo last year, and Rosemary Hollis will talk about the responses she has encountered to the line of argument she develops in her new book Surviving the Story: The Narrative Trap in Israel and Palestine. (Speaker presentations for the first 55 minutes followed by a Q&A discussion). About the speakers: In her career Rosemary Hollis PhD has worked in academia and the ‘think tank’ community, focusing on the involvement of the EU, the US and the UK in conflicts in the Middle East. She was Director of the Olive Tree Scholarship Programme for Palestinians and Israelis (2008-16) and Professor of Middle East Policy Studies (2012-18) at City, University of London. Before that, Rosemary was Director of Research (2005-08) and Head of the Middle East Programme (1995-2005) at Chatham House (the Royal Institute of International Affairs) in London. Seth Anziska is the Mohamed S. Farsi-Polonsky Associate Professor of Jewish-Muslim Relations at University College London. His research and teaching focuses on Israeli and Palestinian society and culture, modern Middle Eastern history, and contemporary Arab and Jewish politics. He was a 2019 Fulbright Scholar at the Norwegian Nobel Institute, and has held visiting positions at Dartmouth College, New York University, the London School of Economics, and the American University of Beirut. The discussion is chaired by Dr Zahera Harb, senior lecturer in International Journalism at City, University of London. Her recent publications include an edited collection titled Reporting the Middle East: the Practice of News in the 21st Century (IB Tauris 2017) and an edited collection with Dina Matar titled Narrating Conflict in the Middle East: Discourse, Image and Communication Practices in Palestine and Lebanon (IB Tauris 2013) and a monograph titled Channels of Resistance: Liberation Propaganda Hezbollah and the Media (IB Tauris, 2011).

Seth Anziska in conversation with Kjersti G. Berg (CMI) about Anzisk's new book 'Preventing Palestine. A political history from Camp David to Oslo'. For seventy years Israel has existed as a state, and for forty years it has honoured a peace treaty with Egypt that is widely viewed as a triumph of U.S. diplomacy in the Middle East. Yet the Palestinians—the would-be beneficiaries of a vision for a comprehensive regional settlement that led to the Camp David Accords in 1978—remain stateless to this day. Combining astute political analysis, extensive original research, and interviews with diplomats, military veterans, and communal leaders, Preventing Palestine offers a bold new interpretation of a highly charged struggle for self-determination. Seth Anziska is the Mohamed S. Farsi-Polonsky Lecturer in Jewish-Muslim Relations at University College London and a visiting fellow at the U.S./Middle East Project. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, Foreign Policy, and Haaretz. He lives in London. This conversation was recorded at the House of Literature in Bergen (Litteraturhuset) on 9 May 2019.

The question of Palestinian autonomy has been a key element of Middle Eastern and Arab politics for much of the last century. A new history, by Seth Anziska, Preventing Palestine: A Political History from Camp David to Oslo(Princeton University Press, 2018) redefines our understanding of the peace process and its ultimate failure: forty years after the Camp David Accords, the Palestinian people remain without a state. The book walks us through the Camp David Accords, Israel's 1982 war with Lebanon, and the first Intifada in 1987, drawing in the diplomatic perspectives of the Palestinians, Israelis, Egyptians, and Americans through a diverse set of sources. Most critically, this includes newly declassified sources from Israeli archives. Anziska's narrative ultimately asserts that Palestinian opportunities for autonomy have only decreased over time, explaining how the peace process stalls even today. In this interview, Seth talks us through the book, the questions that dog Palestinian-Israeli relations today, the realities of archival work, and his non-academic collaborations.

Dr Seth Anziska (Mohamed S. Farsi-Polonsky Lecturer in Jewish-Muslim Relations, University College London), gives a talk for the Middle East Studies Centre. Based on newly declassified international sources, Preventing Palestine charts the emergence of the Middle East peace process, including the establishment of a separate track to deal with the issue of Palestine. At the very start of this process, Anziska argues, Egyptian-Israeli peace came at the expense of the sovereignty of the Palestinians, whose aspirations for a homeland alongside Israel faced crippling challenges. With the introduction of the idea of restrictive autonomy, Israeli settlement expansion, and Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon, the chances for Palestinian statehood narrowed even further. The first Intifada in 1987 and the end of the Cold War brought new opportunities for a Palestinian state, but many players, refusing to see Palestinians as a nation or a people, continued to steer international diplomacy away from their cause (Princeton University Press).

Diane Wolfthal joined Rice University in 2008 after teaching at New York University and Columbia University, among others. Dr. Wolfthal has authored four books: The Beginnings of Netherlandish Canvas Painting: 1400-1530(Cambridge University Press,1989; 2nd printing, 1990), Images of Rape: The "Heroic" Tradition and its Alternatives (Cambridge University Press, 1999; paperback, 2000), and Picturing Yiddish: Gender, Identity, and Memory in Illustrated Yiddish Books of Renaissance Italy (Brill, 2004). Her latest book, In and Out of the Marital Bed: Seeing Sex in Late Medieval and Early Modern Art, in press with Yale University Press, examines the intersection of sexuality and gendered spatial topography and the links between images of licit and illicit sexuality. She has also edited a collection of interdisciplinary essays, Peace and Negotiation: Strategies for Co-Existence in the Middle Ages and Renaissance (Brepols, 2000) and co-edited two others. The first, Framing the Family: Narrative and Representation in the Medieval and Early Modern Periods (MRTS), appeared in 2005. Money, Morality and Culture in Early Modern Europe, which she co-edited with Juliann Vitullo and is in press with Ashgate, explores how the rise of the mercantile economy affected the art, literature, and values of Europe. She is currently completing the Corpus of Fifteenth-Century Painting in the Southern Netherlands and the Principality of Liège: Early Netherlandish Paintings in Los Angeles, with Catherine Metzger. This will be published by the Centre d’étude de la peinture du quinzième siècle dans les Pays-Bas méridionaux et la principauté de Liège in Brussels. Dr. Wolfthal is also co-editing a forthcoming Festschrift in honor of Professor Colin Eisler. She was a Founding Co-editor of Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal, and currently serves as its Forum co-editor and Art History Associate Editor. She is also a book series editor for Visualizing the Middle Ages, which is published by Brill. Dr. Wolfthal has been awarded both teaching awards and research grants, including the Sylvan C. Coleman and Pamela Coleman Memorial Fund Art History Fellowship from the Metropolitan Museum of Art (2006), the Paul Mellon Visiting Senior Fellowship from the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. (2005), National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowships (2006, 2002-3), National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Stipends, (1993, 2001), and an American Association of University Women Educational Foundation American Postdoctoral Scholar Fellowship (1997-98), and Leona Beckmann Fellowship (1991-1992). A specialist in late medieval and early modern European art, she has published numerous articles in such journals as The Art Bulletin, Gazette des Beaux Arts, Oud Holland, and Medieval Feminist Journal. She teaches courses on late medieval and early modern art, on such topics as Early Netherlandish painting, Multicultural Europe, Jewish culture, feminist analysis, and the history of sexuality. She has organized a conference, Crossing Borders: Visualizing Jewish/Christian and Jewish/Muslim Relations in Medieval and Early Modern Times, which will be held March 14-15, 2010.
