About This Item
Sheila Carmel was born in 1927 in London, grew up in England as a Zionist, and graduated the University of London in Psychology. Following her graduation she fulfilled her personal dream of coming to live in Israel in 1951, shortly following the establishment of the State of Israel.
In Israel Sheila taught English to many government officials, members of Parliament, government ministers, members of the Israeli Defense Forces as well as many pupils and students. Sheila cherished English literature, was a lover of books, the written word and English theatre. She was known and admired for her British manners, quiet speech, modesty and soft conduct.
Sheila passed away in 1985, at the early age of 57. Her husband Yossi and her only son, Shai, decided to commemorate her by establishing a series of annual lectures in English literature at the Tel Aviv University. The Fund was made possible by the generosity and donations of the many good friends of Sheila and Yossi Carmel in Israel and abroad.
The Fund was established with a specific aim of bringing to Israel distinguished scholars and writers in the field of English literature from all over the world to deliver an annual lecture as well as meet and participate in workshops with English literature students at the Tel Aviv University.
The initial lecture took place in 1988. Over the last 20 years it has become a well known, universal prestigious podium for exploring the boundaries of poetic, disciplinary, national, ethical and cultural issues. To date two volumes of the lectures delivered between 1988 and 2004 were published by the Tel Aviv University and funded by the Carmel family.
