The final Faculty Lecture Series of the winter semester will take a look at Berlin in the 20th Century, a tumultuous time. The talk is hosted by NSU’s Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences.
“Life and Death in 20th Century Berlin”
Faculty Lecture Series | Stephen Levitt, LL.M., associate professor
Thursday, Apr. 18
5:00–6:00 p.m.
NSU’s Alvin Sherman Library | Second Floor Gallery
About the Talk
While political scientists and historians often follow the great and the powerful, this presentation will consider the average resident caught up in war, revolution, aerial bombardment, inflation, tyranny, the Holocaust, occupation, and division. How did average people survive, and how did they sometimes meet their deaths in the downtown area of Berlin, designated today as Mitte, while all of this went on around them?
This talk is free, and all are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served.
