Join historian and author Marius Turda for a thought-provoking illustrated talk and Q&A exploring the themes of his recent book, În căutarea românului perfect (In Search of the Perfect Romanian).
This engaging session will delve into the history of eugenics, nationalism, and the shaping of Romanian identity in the 20th century. Marius Turda draws on archival material, visual culture, and political discourse to examine how ideas of "biological perfection" were constructed and promoted—and the legacy they leave behind.
Whether you're interested in history, politics, cultural studies, or the intersections of science and society, this event offers a unique opportunity to reflect on the past and its relevance today.
Attendees will be invited to participate in a live Q&A following the talk.
