Gerahmte Gewalt. Private Fotoalben von Deutschen im »Osteinsatz« und die Erinnerung an den Zweiten Weltkrieg

In the organizer's words:

Private photo albums are material evidence of how Germans experienced the Second World War and how they wanted to remember it. However, research has so far only dealt with them to a limited extent. Based on his analysis of several hundred private albums with a focus on the German war of extermination in Eastern Europe, Dr. Jürgen Matthäus (United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Washington D.C.) talks about what constitutes their war narrative, how they represent violence and what traces they have left behind in family memory to this day.
