ILKLEY & DISTRICT u3a

The Saturday Talk - A Forgotten Corner Of Europe

  • 20 Jul 2024
  • 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
  • Main Hall, Clarke Foley, Cunliffe Road, Ilkley, LS29 9DZ

Kersten Hall is a visiting fellow in the Centre for History of Science at the University of Leeds and describes his work as involving writing about long dead scientists who few people have heard of and trying to persuade us why their stories matter.

In a slight digression from this theme, his talk to Ilkley U3A will focus on a forgotten corner of Europe that few people have heard of, and why its story matters – a subject which, due to his family history, is close to his heart and is told in his short story for children, ‘The Unknown Soldier' (https://www.kerstenhall.com/the-unknown-soldier-a-short-story-for-our-time/)
