CMCI PhD student Wendy Burke presented her research paper ‘Myth, memory and re-writing the past in film: The shifting image of resistance and collaboration in Dutch films about World War Two from the 1960s and 1970s’ at the UCL Centre for European Studies Symposium ‘Transitions: European Communities of Experience and Memory’. Lost in CCI understands that the paper was very well received, even by the more traditional histiorians present!
Wendy is in the final stages of ‘writing up’ her doctoral thesis under the supervision of centre director Dr Richard Howells. Wendy has agreed to give a seminar on her work to current MA CCI students next semester, and will also answer questions about what it’s like to be a research student here at CMCI.
