About

The aim of Humboldt University Berlin's Exploring Berlin Museums - Memory, Collecting and Display course is to explore the Berlin museological landscape using anthropological field methods. 

Overview

Careers

While at Humboldt University Berlin's Exploring Berlin Museums - Memory, Collecting and Display you will actively approach the sites and reflect on them interactively, using a constant comparison methodology.

Programme Structure

  • The focus will be on the key issues of memory – especially that of WWII – and collecting practices – how did certain objects find their way here?  How are such histories displayed and transmitted today?  These are the questions that we will address as we explore the museums as dynamic fields that can inform our understanding of how Berlin presents itself both inwardly (in smaller city museums) and outwardly in larger, world-famous museums. 
  • This course is anthropologically inflected and treats the sites as field sites to be explored empirically and analyzed critically. It is well-suited to students who are interested in history, the social sciences, and/or more specific fields such as urban studies, ethics or museum studies.
