DescriptionWhile current studies show interest in adult children of intermarriage between Jews and non-Jews, the bulk of this research does not fully elaborate on dual cultural-religious identity, the complexities arising from competing definitions of Jewishness, and how those complexities impact hybrid identity formation among the offspring of intermarriage. The analyses within this thesis are based on a collection of in-depth personal narrative interviews in which informants responded to questions, told stories of their life events, and discussed their identities. As extreme examples of cultural-religious hybridity, the project explores how adult children of intermarriage draw on the past to construct identities and narratives. The study contributes to broader understandings of hybrid identity and the relationships between memory, identity, narrative, and performance.
