Inhalt Participation in the seminar “After Empires. Imperial legacies in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe” is obligatory to take part in the excursion!

This excursion will help students deepen their knowledge and understanding of the historical events, obtained as part of the seminar “After Empires. Imperial legacies in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe”. In Thessaloniki and Thrace, we will search for historical traces of the former governments ruling this region, and try to deconstruct the strategies of Greece as a nation-state to overcome those remnants of the imperial past. Thessaloniki once was the second largest city of the Byzantine Empire, the birthplace of the founding father of the Republic of Turkey Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and home to a major Jewish community. What is Thessaloniki's identity today? How does the city combine its Byzantine, Muslim, Jewish and Greek faces? What remains from its once vibrant cosmopolitan identity? In particular, we will examine the aftermath of the Greek-Turkish forced population exchange in 1923, and its imprint on the identity of the city and its surroundings.

The excursion will take place on 4-13 June, 2024.

The number of participants is limited, and in the event of high demand, participation may be subject to the submission of a motivation letter. In case of over-subscription, advanced BA and MA students in History, Eastern and Southeastern European Studies, Eastern and Southeastern European Cultures will be admitted first.
