Description
Triennial Conference of the Research Centre for German & Austrian Exiles Studies, IMLR, University of London
Organisers: Jana Buresova, Anthony Grenville, Anita Grosz, Andrea Hammel, Bea Lewkowicz
It has long been recognised that the experiences of refugees from National Socialism, their persecution, incarceration, hiding, emigration, resettlement, further migration, trauma and later lives has had an impact on their children and grandchildren. This conference will explore this in all its facets and different expressions and will focus both on the relationship between the generations as well as the specific differences between generations.
