2025年5月24日，蓝书屋的柏林客厅活动，我们邀请到了来自德国大屠杀纪念基金会（the Holocaust Memorial）的 Adam Kerpel-Fronius。
Adam于1975年出生于匈牙利布达佩斯。1990年，柏林墙倒塌后不久，少年时代的他随家人移居德国西南部的弗莱堡。随后，他在弗莱堡、波兰的弗罗茨瓦夫（Wrocław）、以及柏林自由大学攻读政治学与历史学。他的主要研究领域是欧洲独裁政治的遗留问题，以及中东欧国家的民主转型。
1997年，Kerpel-Fronius移居至柏林。
在柏林初期，Kerpel-Fronius做过历史导游。2005年5月大屠杀纪念馆（Holocaust Memorial）开馆以来，他一直为纪念馆的教育部门工作。2009年以来，他担任该基金会项目的“欧洲记忆场所信息门户网站”（Gedenkstättenportal）的项目负责人，该网站提供全欧洲数百个纳粹主义受害者纪念地的信息。在此期间，他的主要研究方向是欧洲的记忆文化。
Kerpel-Fronius还是三部关于来自东欧的犹太人大屠杀幸存者自传的编辑，同时也是德国-白俄罗斯双边巡展“马利·特罗斯坚涅茨灭绝营：历史与记忆”（»Extermination Camp Maly Trostenets. History and Remembrance«） 的策展人。他是德国派驻“国际大屠杀纪念联盟”（IHRA）代表团的成员。他也为匈牙利多家媒体撰写关于国际政治的文章。
本次柏林客厅活动，Kerpel-Fronius将从自己的成长、移民经历出发，谈论作为一个匈牙利移民，他与德国、与柏林这座城市的关系。记忆政治如何影响他走上研究历史、从事记忆工作实践的道路，以及他如何在今天持续参与欧洲范围内的记忆生产。他也将谈到他策划的展览项目、与东欧幸存者的访谈出版工作，以及他在德国面对来自不同政治立场的挑战与思考。
Berlin Living Room｜Adam Kerpel-Fronius: From Budapest to Berlin – A Hungarian’s Practice with Memory
On May 24, 2025, the Berlin Living Room will invite Adam Kerpel-Fronius, a staff member of the Holocaust Memorial Foundation in Germany.
Adam was born in Budapest, Hungary in 1975. In 1990, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, he moved with his family to Freiburg, in southwestern Germany. He later studied political science and history in Freiburg, Wrocław (Poland), and at the Free University of Berlin. His academic interests have long focused on the legacies of dictatorship in Europe and the democratic transformation of Central and Eastern European countries.
Adam Kerpel-Fronius moved to Berlin in 1997. In his early years there, he worked as a tour guide specializing in the city’s history. After the opening of the Holocaust Memorial in May 2005, he has worked in its educational department. Since 2009, he has managed the Foundation’s project Information Portal to European Sites of Remembrance (Gedenkstättenportal), which provides information on hundreds of memorial sites across Europe dedicated to victims of National Socialism. His main field of research is European memory cultures.
He is also the editor of three autobiographies by Holocaust survivors from Eastern Europe and the curator of the German-Belarusian travelling exhibition “Extermination Camp Maly Trostenets: History and Remembrance.” To this day, he has maintained a keen interest in the cultural and political life of his native Hungary and often contributes political commentary to various media outlets there.
At this Berlin Living Room event, Kerpel-Fronius will reflect on his upbringing and migration experience, and speak about his relationship with Germany—and Berlin in particular—as a Hungarian immigrant. He will explore how the politics of memory have shaped his academic and professional path, and how he continues to participate in the production of memory across Europe.
He will also discuss the exhibitions he has curated, his editorial work on interviews with Eastern European Holocaust survivors, and the political challenges he encounters in his work in Germany from across the ideological spectrum.
