Delusion

A talk by historian István Rév

As the second event of the series of events, Real Fake Stories, accompanying the exhibition Fake for Real, István Rév, the Director of the Blinken OSA Archivum, will give a lecture on fake Holocaust memoirs.

These false, deceptive texts (also) serve to trace the changing politics of memory and cultural memory in recent decades. These 'memoirs', which reconstruct alleged childhood memories, have played a decisive role in shaping ideas about the functioning of individual and collective memory.

The event is in Hungarian.

Admission is free, but registration is required.
