New date – Thursday, 21 November (7.30pm)
Join us as Dr Sandra Barkhof discusses the wave of Germanophobia that swept across Britain during the First World War.
During World War One, Britain was gripped with Germanophobia, with both the government and the press playing central roles. Germanophobia impacted the German community living in the UK and resulted in a change of name for the British Royal Family.
Dr Sandra Barkhof is a lecturer in modern world history with special focus on German history and the Cold War. Her research focuses on German imperialism, the German colonies in the Pacific during World War One, and German colonial memory and memorialisation in the Weimar Republic.Entry Free.
