DEMA demonstration: Kinora Viewer Replica

A hands-on demonstration of the Kinora Viewer Replica. This public online event shows the fruits of a recent successful collaboration between the C2DH and the Department of Engineering. Combining historical inquiry with a hands-on and technical approach – involving the latest 3D modelling and desktop manufacturing engineering techniques – a media historian and two engineers joined forces to produce a working replica of a very special object in the history of (early) cinema: the Kinora viewer.

Borderland Child Heterotopias. A Case Study on the Belgian-German Borderlands

Borderland Child Heterotopias. A Case Study on the Belgian-German Borderlands

This article investigates the capacities of children to participate actively in their lives in the Belgian-German borderlands in the time period between World War I and World War II. The article interprets a body of historical sources that has hitherto been left unexplored – namely, borderland child ego documents – with the help of insights from child studies and border studies. These ego documents unfold as borderland child heterotopias.

Fading Away... The challenge of sustainability in digital studies

Fading Away... The challenge of sustainability in digital studies

This paper emphasizes the need to think about sustainability as a key element of digital studies and digital hermeneutics. It addresses the inherent tensions between the long-term needs of data preservation and maintenance on the one side, and the short life cycles of the data formats, platforms and infrastructures on the other side. Challenges are not limited to the technical maintenance of software, tools and data, but also apply to the wider institutional contexts, epistemic traditions and social practices in which the doing of research in social sciences and humanities are embedded.

Radio Feature "100 Jahre Ostbelgien" Folge 8: Von Geschichtspolitik und Erinnerungskulturen

Radio Feature "100 Jahre Ostbelgien" Folge 8: Von Geschichtspolitik und Erinnerungskulturen

Bis heute beherrscht die Meistererzählung der Ostbelgier als "Opfer" und "Spielball der Geschichte" den öffentlichen Diskurs, wenn es um die Bedeutung der Vergangenheit geht. In der achten und letzten Folge von "100 Jahre Ostbelgien" zeigen die Historiker Andreas Fickers und Christoph Brüll, dass sich in der Auseinandersetzung mit dieser Vergangenheit tiefsitzende Ängste und Sorgen spiegeln. Mentalitätshistorisch gesehen können sie als eine Abfolge von Angstregimen gedeutet werden.

Une crise révélatrice. (Pandémie du Covid-19 : Quel rôle pour l’Union européenne ?)

La pandémie du Covid-19 dont l’Europe a un temps été l’épicentre, a entrainé de lourdes conséquences pour la santé et la vie quotidienne des citoyens. Les 27 membres de l’UE ont pris de mesures nationales exceptionnelles (état d'urgence, confinement, limitation de l'activité économique et des déplacements, fermeture des frontières) en agissant en ordre dispersé. L’Union a été épinglée pour son manque de répondant .Mais quelles sont ses prérogatives en matière sanitaire? Qu’est-ce que l’UE peut faire – et ne peut pas faire – lorsqu’elle est confrontée à une crise de cette magnitude?

Radio-Feature "100 Jahre Ostbelgien" Folge 7: "Die letzten Belgier"

In Episode sieben der Sendereihe "100 Jahre Ostbelgien" behandeln die Historiker Andreas Fickers und Christoph Brüll den Ausbau der Autonomie für die deutschsprachigen Belgier im Zuge der verschiedenen Staatsreformen. Seit den 1970er Jahren bringt der flämisch-wallonische Konflikt stetig neue Staatsreformen hervor. Die Atempausen zwischen den Umbauphasen vom Einheitsstaat zum Bundesstaat wurden dabei immer kürzer. Die Deutschsprachige Gemeinschaft hatte und hat auf diese Entwicklungen keinen entscheidenden Einfluss.

Exploring the 20-year evolution of a research community: web-archives as essential sources for historical research

Le projet PROMISE ne pouvait se concevoir sans aborder la question de l’accès aux archives du web belge. En effet, s’il est important de les sauvegarder, c’est en raison de leur importance comme sources d’information pour la recherche. Par conséquent, lors du colloque “Saving the Web: the Promise of a Belgian Web Archive”, l’accès et l’utilisation de ces archives spécifiques ont été largement abordés.
