Discussions continued on Wednesday. The speakers sought answers to the following questions: How can people understand the past through emotions with others’ traumatic memories, artifacts, or landscapes. What are the possibilities of interpreting the affective politics of war memories, and how do individual, familial or collective memories intersect across cultures and national borders? At the end of the day, the participants attended a piano recital by Károly Binder.
