The forced departure of Jews from Libya in 1967 remains a central issue in the personal and collective memories of the Libyan Jewish diaspora. This article adopts the perspective of “places of emotion” as they are recollected in life stories and it explores the multiple layers of meaning attached to these places by the interviewees. This stance enables us to understand in depth the singular individual histories of Libyan Jews, but at the same time it allows us to grasp the larger social and historical dimensions in which these life stories occurred.

Abstract

The forced departure of Jews from Libya in 1967 remains a central issue in the personal and collective memories of the Libyan Jewish diaspora. This article adopts the perspective of “places of emotion” as they are recollected in life stories and it explores the multiple layers of meaning attached to these places by the interviewees. This stance enables us to understand in depth the singular individual histories of Libyan Jews, but at the same time it allows us to grasp the larger social and historical dimensions in which these life stories occurred.
