About the CST

Jakob Egholm Feldt

Jakob Egholm Feldt is a professor of history at Roskilde University in Denmark. He is interested in the transactions between experiences, concepts, and values in a historical perspective, as for example related to antisemitism, Jewish history, and public controversies about Israel. In a broader perspective, his research analyzes the role of historical experience in the shaping of community and solidarity through narratives of suffering, justice/injustice, memories of “events”, and socially produced notions of direction and purpose in history (synchronization and teleology).

He also publishes on philosophy and theory of higher education.
