In the last episode of season 2, Abigail Jacobson, Senior Lecturer at the Hebrew University, shares with us the view of the city from Mount Scopus. The Hebrew University has in the last decade or so diversified its student population, yet the various communities may not necessarily coming together and the only experience is of sharing the same space. Abigail, the author of two amazing works, one on Jerusalem during World War One and the other on the relationship between Oriental Jews and local Arabs, takes us then through the street of Jerusalem during the war discussing the question of a city changing hands. Lastly, while discussing her more recent work, she tells us about a new project that will look at Musrara and its post 1948 history. Originally published 03/02/2022Welcome to Jerusalem Unplugged Podcast.
