Research spotlight: Spectral recycling
In this episode of the CEU Review of Books podcast host, Andrea Talabér (Managing Editor) is joined by Karolina Ćwiek-Rogalska, Karina Hoření, and Michal Korhel to discuss their ERC-project, Recycling the German Ghost: Resettlement Cultures in Poland, Czechia and Slovakia after 1945. Spectral Recycling.
In the podcast we discuss objects that had been left behind following expulsions and resettlements in the border regions of Czechia, Poland, and Slovakia. These objects include everyday items, such as bowls and pictures; and also objects left behind in the landscape, such as villas and orchards.
