We are happy to present you the recording of our "global book talk" on May 29th, 2020: Travelling Microbes in Central Europe (with Katharina Kreuder-Sonnen and Katrin Steffen). Katharina’s book [*] served us as the point of departure for a discussion of the potential of the material turn for the history of science in Central and Eastern Europe, but also about past and present entanglement of state and hygiene discourses.
[*] Katharina Kreuder-Sonnen: Wie man Mikroben auf Reisen schickt: Zirkulierendes bakteriologisches Wissen und die polnische Medizin 1885–1939 [How to Make Microbes Travel: Circulating bacteriological knowledge and the Polish Medicine 1885-1939] (Tübingen: Mohr Siebeck 2018)
