Next Tuesday, November 7th, I am invited to the Villa Lessing in Saarbrücken to hold the Kommission für Saarländische Landesgeschichte‘s annual lecture.
In my presentation titled 1848/49 nach 175 Jahren: Kritische Perspektiven auf eine demokratiegeschichtliche Vereinnahmung, I will address the increasingly ubiquitous framing of the revolution as a “democratic departure”, reflecting on its implications and pitfalls.
All are welcome and attendance is free. The lecture will also be broadcast on Youtube and Zoom (more information on access is available here and here).
Edit: the lecture has now been made available on Youtube here.
