The summer school ‘History Takes Place – Dynamics of Urban Change’ in from 10 to 14 September 2014 in Rome will bring together twenty young historians, cultural and social scientists, city planners and architects. The ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius and the Gerda Henkel Stiftung invite the participants to investigate the historical urban architecture and the ever-changing urban structures. Participants’ contributions in politics, theory, literature, art, music, and film will provide a comprehensive and in-depth view of the history and the extraordinary character of Rome. Through discussions and the physical experience of the urban spaces, the summer school aims to make participants aware of Rome as a whole, both as an architectural and as a represented space.
Please send your application including a statement of interest, CV and suggested presentation topic to the programme director at the ZEIT-Stiftung, Dr. Anna Hofmann: hofmann@zeit-stiftung.de. Application deadline is 15 May 2014.
