The Centre's Kim Wünschmann will give a talk entitled 'Whose Heimat is/was it? Documentating Jewish History in Postwar Germany, 1965-1975' at the international conference Rupture and Rapprochement: Jewish - Non-Jewish Relations in post-Shoah Germany. The event, which is held by the Center for Jewish Studies Berlin-Brandenburg in Berlin, that will raise the question of how Jews and non-Jews interacted with one another in the aftermath of the Holocaust. While research has primarily focused on the political sphere, this conference will shed new light on those Jewish-German encounters which took place offstage, on a private level, through literature and theater, in academia or simply through doing business.

List of Speakers: Stefanie Schüler-Springorum, Moshe Zimmermann, David Jünger, Jack Kugelmass, Markus Nesselrodt, Anna Junge, Stefanie Fischer, Froukje Demant, Rainer Kampling, Nathanael Riemer, Yitzhak Ahren, Lina Nikou, Kim Wünschmann, Linde Apel, Alexandra Tyrolf, Amos Morris-Reich, Anthony Kauders, Anne Clara Schenderlein, Elisabeth Gallas, Monica Black, Annette Leo,  Irmela von der Lühe, Cilly Kugelmann, David Ranan, Kenneth D. Wald, Jutta Weduwen, Swenja Granzo-Rauwald.
