Answering the "German Question": The 150th Anniversary of German Unification

This historical presentation commemorates the 150^th anniversary of the unification of Germany in January of 1871.  

Historian Robert Hogg, Ph.D., who teaches at North Park University and Columbia College Chicago, will address the fascinating political and cultural background of German unification as well as the dramatic events that led to the creation of the German Empire 150 years ago this month.  He will also touch on the wider significance that this has had for Germany, for Europe, and for the world—significance that is still apparent today.  

Dr. Hogg’s 45-minute presentation will be followed by a live Q & A and group discussion in which everyone is encouraged to participate.
