Dr. Jessica Paola Marino is a\u00a0 PhD graduate from the Cultural Mediations program. Her research interests are centred on cultural representations which mark the interconnections of memory between different historical traumas, in particular the Holocaust and the dictatorships in the Southern Cone of Latin America (Uruguay, Chile, Argentina) of the 1970s.<\/p>\n
She is interested in the decentralization of Holocaust memory and the interconnection of personal and collective memories across cultural and geographical spaces. Her research seeks to bring attention to Latin American and Jewish Latin American representations of traumatic memory relating to the Southern Cone dictatorships of the 1970s and the Holocaust.<\/p>\n
