Dublin Festival of History

Terenure Library

Holocaust Education Ireland and Terenure Library will host this talk which aims to provide an overview of the lived experience of Dublin’s Jews during the war years, as well as outlining biographical information regarding Esther Steinberg and the other Irish Jewish victims. It will also raise questions regarding the Irish government’s attitude towards Jews and European Jewish refugees during the 1930s and 1940s and will speculate as to the moral culpability regarding the death of Esther Steinberg at Auschwitz in September1942. 
Dr Melanie Brown has lectured in the School of History and Humanities, Trinity College, Dublin for several years, is a Senior 

Examiner at the Royal Irish Academy of Music and is a board member of Holocaust Education Ireland.
