Name of conference: War, Through Other Stuff: Non-Military Narratives, Artistic Interpretations and the Material Culture of Conflict -Conference topic/theme: This interdisciplinary conference will be dedicated to the alternative histories of conflict. Through papers, presentations, film screenings, performances, object handling sessions, and discussion, this conference will explore the impact of conflict on cultural and social life, representations of war in art and culture, and find war in unexpected places.

Name of conference: The Berlin Airlift. A Realm of Memory of the Cold War -Conference topic/theme: The primary focus will be to use analysis of the various media (press, newsreels etc.) to examine the direct perception of those central Cold War events by the victorious powers, in West Germany, and in the Soviet occupation zone/East Germany. In addition, we will illuminate memories of the Blockade and the Airlift by examining the ceremonial aspects (organization, process, response) and public speeches (development of a narrative); the anniversary and its symbols (posters, stamps etc.); how they are embedded in Berlin’s topography and beyond (monuments, plaques, renaming of streets); and the museum aspects (memorial sites, Tempelhof Airport, Allied Museum, memorial site in Fassberg etc.). In that way, we can uncover the formative historical-social references and symbolism of the memory site “Airlift.” We will also incorporate a look at how the Airlift has been dealt with in the various forms of artistic expression, such as film (fiction and documentary), photography, literature (novels, thrillers, comics etc.), music, and painting, as well as an analysis of other media such as radio, video games, and even textbooks. For it is only via these various avenues that can we achieve a true impression of how the memory site “Airlift” is embedded in society. . -Dates of conference: 13-14 March 2017 -Location of conference: Allied Museum, Berlin, Germany -Organizer/host/sponsor of conference: LaBex ENHE, CEGIL (Université de Lorraine), the Allied Museum and the Berlin Center for Cold War Studies -Conference point of contact: Ulrich Pfeil ([email protected]) and Corine Defrance ([email protected]) -Additional conference information:
