The LBI London is pleased to welcome our new Postdoctoral Research Fellow to the team.

Dr Stahlberger is an early career researcher specialising in German and Austrian exile studies and German-Jewish history. Her work focuses on questions of cultural identity, belonging, and transnational memory.

She will be investigating how (cultural) memory and identity have evolved among German-Jewish Holocaust exiles and Kindertransport refugees, as well as their descendants. She is planning to analyse personal documents (diaries, letters, memoirs) and oral histories from various archives in Britain and North America to understand how trauma, identity, and memory are transmitted across generations and across borders.

Welcome to the team, Monja!
