Achim Landwehr: Mind the void
Tuesday, 15 July, 2025
In this episode, host Kim König is joined by Ole Münch, Research Fellow for Modern History, and Achim Landwehr, Professor of Early Modern History at the University of Konstanz. Together, they discuss the research behind Achim Landwehr's GHIL Lecture, which examined the constitutive role of voids in European early modernity. Their conversation moves from information-rich early modern calendars to the significance of gaps in our past, exploring how these influence the way we teach and write about history.
