Jerry Zaslove (sometimes credited as Jerald Zaslove) is a Canadian scholar noted for contributions to education in the humanities.
Zaslove was among the founding faculty members of Simon Fraser University[1], where he later founded the Institute for the Humanities.
In an interview, Zaslove characterized his work as being influenced by "Walter Benjamin, Mikhail Bakhtin, Siegfried Kracauer, Brecht, Heartfield, Céline, Jeff Wall, Atget, Kafka, Herbert Read, Lewis Mumford, Wayne Burns [...]," adding that "lists can make one depressed."[2]
In 2009 he curated an exhibit on Franz Kafka at the SFU Gallery; titled "The Insurance Man." A book of essays related to the exhibit was released by LineBooks.
