The inaugural Eutopia Summer School on the history of violence is taking place at TU Dresden from 2-8 July 2023. The school is aimed primarily at undergraduates about to enter their final year of study and will enable exploration of themes such as:

• Historiography of Violence
• Gendered Violence
• Colonial Violence
• Violence in Political Discourse
• Representing Violence
• Drink-Related Violence

Born out of the longstanding relationship between Warwick and Dresden, the summer school is run by scholars from both institutions, providing students access to world-class research and teaching. An amazing opportunity and we wish them well this week!

Congratulations to James Poskett and Niels Boender for making the 2023 shortlist for the Warwick Awards for Teaching Excellence (Arts Faculty & PGR). Well deserved recognition of brilliant teaching! The winners will be announced on 27 June 2023.
