Victoria Mummelthei
Additional information / Pre-requisites

Comments
What survives in cities? Everyone will investigate this question, but each from their own disciplinary perspective and background. A historian might trace layers of memory. An economist might follow networks of exchange. A literature student might collect stories that persist.
We meet intensively at the start to establish our shared inquiry around Berlin, then gather periodically to share what we're discovering. Each student develops a substantial piece of writing that approaches our central question through their own lens.
The course reveals how different ways of seeing generate different kinds of knowledge and writing. No prior knowledge of Berlin or urban studies required. close
