Postcarding Culture in Times of Upheavals

The slider shows some postcards that have been exchanged in the research group. The photo postcard you see was the first to find its way from Israel to Germany. It was created by Alon Kruger. More will follow as research progresses!


Welcome to the project


Postcards and Postcarding Culture in Germany and Israel 1960-2000: Addressing an Ambivalent habitual Object in Times of Historical Upheavals is a collaborative project of the Georg-August-University Göttingen's Institute of Cultural Anthropology/European Ethnology and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem's Program in Folklore Culture Studies. On this website, you can learn more about our project, meet the team, get updates and find valuable resources. We invite you to accompany our project and even to become part of it through sending us a postcard!

We are excited about new knowledge and look forward to sharing it with you!
