German-Belorussian-Lithuanian relationships

Looking for ideas of scientific excursions? I recommend you to go to Lithuania. I took part on the excursion for German, Lithuanian and Belorussian students „Lithuania During a Period of The Two World Wars“ (05.10.2014 – 17.05.2014, Vilnius and Kaunas, Lithuania), organised in cooperation with the Vilnius University and European Humanities University.

Here you can  get to know our seminar's programme, so you can organise it for you and your group.

Urban Spaces of L'viv

On May 29-31, 2014 the 12th International Conference "Lviv: City – Society – Culture" took place at the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv and the Center for Urban History.

The conference, dedicated to Lviv’s urban space in both its physical and symbolic dimensions, is called "Urban Spaces of Lviv/Lwów/Lemberg: Imagination, Experiences, Practices."

Fluctuating memory

Collective, individual, cultural or communicative memory are very well known in the science. But what is fluctuating or ambiguous memory?

I came to this conclusion in regard to my analyse of monuments in L'viv between 1867 and 1939. "Ambiguous memory" means that the memory on one person or event is differential for different society groups and even individuals.

The Balkans in the 19. and the 20. century

I took part on a seminar about the history of the relationships on the Balkan in the 19th and 20th century in Varna 2006. On the seminar took part students of history at the Potsdam university and Bulgarian history students.

If you are interested in history of the World War I on the Balkan, I recommend you this book: Der Erste Weltkrieg auf dem Balkan: Perspektiven der Forschung (2011)
