History Museums: Sedimentation, Imagination, Representation

Join us at the Hansabibliothek for a thought-provoking lecture by Andreas Ludwig on the nature of history museums. History museums function as unique entities that reflect historical perspectives through collecting and research, while simultaneously claiming authority through their material evidence. This lecture explores how museums use imagination to present history and how they serve as complex reflections of the value society assigns to the past. Don't miss this opportunity to engage with historical theory and museum culture in a relaxed, intellectual setting.
