Prof. Mario Niemann from the Department of History at the University of Rostock will once again read from his book *Constant Change: Agriculture and Rural Society in Mecklenburg from 1900 to 2000*.
This time, Prof. Niemann takes us back to the era of the German Empire from 1900 to 1914. We’ll learn a lot of interesting facts about rural life during that period. Prof.
Niemann discusses the following topics:
the situation of farmworkers, political influence on farmworkers, housing conditions in rural areas, rural self-sufficiency, customs and superstitions, and the early stages of electrification.
