    Fourth Annual Georges Lieber Essay Contest (4/19/23)

     Georges Lieber, at the age of 16, prided himself on being part of the French resistance. Perhaps because of that involvement, he and his family were identified and taken by the Nazis, and on July 3, 1944, Georges was deported to Auschwitz, where he was murdered. To make a blessing of Georges Lieber’s memory, please articulate an issue on or of resistance that you have encountered and analyze what it has taught you about resistance and yourself. Note that the most engaging essays often reflect deeply on a particularly meaningful experience or episode in one’s life. That approach could focus on resistance pertaining to:

    • A personal issue
    • A family matter
    • An academic inquiry
    • A dilemma in literature or film
    • A recent article or editorial in a major newspaper
    • A current conflict in American life
    • An international crisis

    Submission

    Email your essay, with “Georges Lieber” as the subject, to the Jewish Studies Committee at Gettysburg College: gettysburgcollegejewishstudies@gmail.com

    Format

    In 3,000 words, you are encouraged to raise questions, single out issues, and identify dilemmas involving resistance. Essays may be written in the formal or informal tone, but most importantly, an individual voice should be evident. The essay should be developed from your point of view and may be biographical, historical, literary, philosophical, psychological, sociological or theological. It must be the original, unpublished work of one student. Only one essay per student per year may be submitted. It must have a title, and must be written in English. The essays should be titled, typed in a 12-point font, an easily readable font (such as Times New Roman), double-spaced with 1” margins and numbered pages. Submissions will be judged anonymously by the Gettysburg College Jewish Studies Committee. (We have heavily relied on the language from the Elie Wiesel Prize in Ethics essay contest.)
