Berlin-Brandenburg Colloquium for Environmental History
The Berlin-Brandenburg Colloquium for Environmental history is happy to
announce its schedule of talks for the coming spring/summer semester. This
seminar series was initially conceived on the margins of a conference at the
Rachel Carson Centre in Munich in early 2012, and has been running since the
summer of that year. Its goal is to provide a forum for the intellectual
exchange and cooperation among researchers interested in issues relating
environmental history in a broad sense – at various stages of completion –
in the German capital region – and beyond.
The colloquium is rapidly internationalizing both in terms of contributors
and contributions – including papers on Brazil, Britain, North America,
Austria, East and West Germany. This coming summer term, for the first time,
a majority of papers will be given in English by international guests.
However, as the global and the local shall go together, contributions are
welcome in both English and German, discussions are conducted in both
languages.
The colloquium is hosted by Humboldt-University Berlin’s department of
history, situated in the city centre of Berlin in the Friedrichstrasse – see
address below.
Anyone interested is invited to participate and join us for the discussion
and a beer afterwards. Guests from outside the region are particularly
welcome to attend – or present at a later stage.
If you are interested to participate or present in the future, please get in
touch with the organizers:
