Fritz Thyssen Stiftung Grant

I have been awarded a one-year research grant by the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung. The title of the project I applied with is: “Ressourcenverbrauch und Rearrangement des Raums: Praktiken und Materialität des Tagebaus um 1900”

The funding will begin in September and I hope to be able to collect archival material and write a first journal article. Later, the research from this project can be easily feed into a more comprehensive analysis of how to grasp practices and materiality in history. For the moment, this is certainly a great point of depature!
