On Tuesday (10/12), Evelyne Accad, Professor Emerita in French and Comparative 
Literature will be giving a presentation "Women's Survival Narratives in the 
Camps of Sabra and Chatila."  The talk will be at noon in Rm 101, International 
Studies Building, at the corner of Fifth and Chalmers.  

 
On a Fulbright Fellowship in Lebanon in 2001, Accad concentrated on the effects 
of war on women’s lives and on health issues. She interviewed women in the 
refuge camps of Sabra and Shatila, "where the memories of the massacres – rapes 
and dismemberment of women – are still very acute, and fear is very much 
present."
