Alle Termine der Veranstaltung 'Apocalypse Now, Then, When? – Online Lecture Series':

The lecture of the Centre for Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Studies (CAPAS) at Heidelberg University undertakes the task of exploring imaginaries and experiences of apocalypses and post-apocalypses from an interdisciplinary perspective.

With this format, the research at CAPAS is made accessible to members of Heidelberg University and the interested public. We cordially invite you to engage in the interdisciplinary discussions. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the lectures will be held digitally.
