The end of the war is usually remembered as a moment of victory and celebration – but the picture at the time was much more complicated. Whole cities had been razed, millions had been killed, and economies had collapsed. This opening session will take a snapshot of conditions across Europe and tackle some of the key questions: where and when did the war actually end? And what did this ‘end’ actually mean for Europe’s traumatised populations?

The session will include an introductory talk, discussion of a document picked by Keith, and an extensive Q&A. Registrants will also be sent a link to view a recording of the webinar shortly after it has ended.
