Enzo Traverso

The twentieth century often appears in shared memory as one of the most violent periods in the history of Europe, but its intellectual and political legacy also contains a host of voices that have expanded the frontiers of thought in the quest for justice and emancipation. The historian Enzo Traverso is a specialist in twentieth-century political and intellectual movements. In this session, he talks with writer and philologist Jordi Amat and invites us to take a critical look at the relationship between culture and politics in European history and its value when thinking about the future.
