About the event

Some names echo through history like a warning bell, and none louder than Hitler. But nearly a century on, have we really reckoned with his legacy, or merely flattened it into cliché? Acclaimed historian Katja Hoyer digs beneath the mythology to explore how one man, and the conditions that enabled him, still shape our politics, fears, and collective memory. From far-right resurgence to historical amnesia, this is a vital interrogation of power, propaganda, and the terrifying ease with which democracies can unravel. Just for a bit of extra spice Katja will be chatting to Fred Studemann whose great uncle was one of the officers involved in the plot to assassinate Hitler in 1944.   €25
