After Robert Lackner's fascinating talk on 'Austrian Refugees in the British Army' at the Austrian Cultural Forum in London, it was excellent to be in conversation with him about his research project and the complexities of wartime British-Austrian relations.

Great to listen to @neilgregor.bsky.social speak about his latest book, 'The Symphony Concert in Nazi Germany', at tonight's Modern European History Seminar at @oxhistoryfaculty.bsky.social in their new Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities - an interesting venue!

Splendid to speak at Radley College on Sunday. Great hospitality, great questions, great team. Thanks so much. “Lessons in Diplomacy: Politics, Power and Parties” is now on sale geni.us/LessonsinDip... #book #books #booktok #lessonsindiplomacy #international #diplomats #diplomacy #diplomacybooks

After first crossing paths with @leighturnerwriter.bsky.social while he was still UK ambassador in Vienna and I was writing about his predecessor in the 1930s for my PhD, it was so good to have him at Radley to speak with our students last night. Check out his new memoir, 'Lessons in Diplomacy'!

'The crisis of our time is happening not only before our eyes, but in our minds.'

'On Tyranny' by @timothysnyder.bsky.social changed my life when I read it as a History graduate student. I've since read and discussed it each year with my own students. It awakens you and stirs you into action.

What's the use of studying History? This.👇

Incredibly exciting news out of @bmeia.gv.at! A new research project investigating members of the Austrian Foreign Ministry during the Nazi era, 1938-45, and after. Did they resist, or take up a Nazi commission? Were they persecuted, or persecutors?
