SUMMARY:CES: "Metropolis in Ruins: Berlin in the 1940's" | Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann 
DESCRIPTION:<div class="scroll"><div class="summary">Metropolis in Ruins explores the history of Berlin in the mid-1940s, as it was being transformed from the capital of the Nazi empire to the shattered metropolis of the Cold War. The bounded space of the city allows to combine close-ups of concrete situations, actors, and social relations with long shots of mid-twentieth century disjunctures in the international arena. By exploring Berlin as a multinational space in transit from war to peace, the talk also investigates the resilience of urban life after catastrophe.</div><div class="speakers"><div class="speaker"><a href="http://history.berkeley.edu/people/stefan-ludwig-hoffmann"> Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann</a> <span class="affiliations">Professor of History, University of California at Berkeley</span></div></div><div class="sponsors"><span>Sponsors:</span> <a href="https://ces.fas.harvard.edu/studygroups/new-directions-in-european-history/">New Directions in European History</a></div><div class="contact"><span>Contact:</span> Carla Heelan, <a href="mailto:ces-new-directions@fas.harvard.edu">ces-new-directions@fas.harvard.edu</a></div></div>
