Ohio Wesleyan University will hold its inaugural Robert Kragalott Lecture on Genocide, Mass Atrocity, and Human Rights on Jan. 30, 2013. The newly endowed lecture series honors the memory of Kragalott, Ph.D., a 27-year Ohio Wesleyan professor of modern European history. The free presentation will feature Timothy Snyder, D.Phil., the Housum Professor of History at Yale University, discussing “Global Holocaust: The Central European Past and Our Future.” Snyder will speak at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 30 in Benes Rooms A and B of the university’s Hamilton-Williams Campus Center, 40 Rowland Ave., Delaware. Snyder has written five award-winning books including 2010’s “Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin,” which examines Nazi and Soviet mass killing on the lands between Berlin and Moscow.
