SUMMARY:LOOKING BACK ON ABDELAZIZ THAALBI, HIS LIFE, HIS WORKS AND HIS TRIAL
DESCRIPTION:<p>	As part of its '<em>Ask a Historian</em>' Lecture Series, CMES Tunisia presents a scholarly discussion with<strong> Kmar Bendana</strong>, Professor of History at the University of Manouba, on Abdelaziz Thaalbi's life, work and trial. This discussion will be moderated by <strong>Laura Thompson</strong>, PhD candidate at Harvard University.  Questions will highlight less-known aspects of Thaalbi's political, intellectual and personal life: What do we know about the founder of the Destour Party (1920), today? How was this national figure peceived in post-Independance Tunisia and why did his image reemerge, to become iconic, in post-Revolution Tunisia? What are the reasons and circumstances behind his exiles and his trial? Why was Thaalbi sentenced to death after being accused of blasphemy in 1904?<drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="afda3f2f-9a41-40c5-9a22-b8a1da7b0888" alt="Thaalbi-Affiche" data-view-mode="hwp_large"></drupal-media></p><p>	 </p>
