Talking Culture

Society & Culture


In this episode, we are speaking to British composer & theatre maker Alice Boyd and German historian & journalist Simon Strauß and ask them: What role does Europe play in your lives? Is your generation sceptical of Europe? And how does Brexit affect you? Europe consists of many different stories – personal stories of people from different generations. In this talk, we are discussing Europe from the perspective of young European intellectuals and creatives. Alice Boyd and Simon Strauß are involved in the project “European Archive of Voices” which collects interviews of well-known Europeans born before 1945. Their work is integral to the Goethe-Institut’s project “Tell Me About Europe” taking place during the German EU Council Presidency 2020: www.goethe.de/tellmeabouteurope
