Blog: Dispatches from Hamburg

Hi! Welcome to the blog of the Hamburg team working on the project ‘Taming the European Leviathan: The Legacy of Post-War Medicine and the Common Good’. This informal blog aims to provide an insight into not only our research, but also who we are. As such, we currently have a series entitled Dispatches from Hamburg which discusses our experiences of researching and writing history (and the challenges we have faced in doing so during a global pandemic), life in Hamburg, and even the historical figures we would most like to invite to a dinner party. In these strange and often difficult times, forging academic connections across countries and continents is especially important, and Dispatches from Hamburg is an open space for the sharing of thoughts and interests.
