I am trained as a modern European historian. My areas of specialization are twentieth-century German history, gender and sexuality and religion in the transatlantic world. What particularly interests me is how religions have adapted to and been transformed by processes of secularization, modernization, and globalization. I currently work as a freelance editor and translator. My translation languages are German, Spanish, and French. I also read Dutch and Italian.

As a German historian,…moreI have always been interested in how religious belief informs political debates in societies that define themselves as secular. As a German historian, I knew that most books on Catholicism in West Germany assumed a brief resurgence of religious influence in the 1950s, but this influence ended by the mid-1960s. This loss of influence was associated with the collapse of the milieu. Certainly this milieu did collapse, but the role of the Catholic Church in the 1970s abortion debate in Germany suggested that Catholicism's influence on German politics was far from over. So what I wanted to know was if the so-called Catholic milieu that shaped Catholic life from cradle to grave was in fact dead, what had replaced it? And how is it even to this day a much smaller Catholic Church in Germany continues to exercise significant influence, especially on issues of gender and sexuality?(less)

The Donor Insemination Debate: Transnational Concerns and West German Peculiarities, 1945-1965

Working on a new essay addressing the immediate postwar debate in West Germany on donor insemination that demonstrates how this debate is connected to a larger transnational debate on changing gender norms, science's seeming triumph over religion, and nuclear angst in the early Cold War. Here is the introduction of that article still in progress:

Mildly entertaining but very intellectually light fare. So unless you are a serious arcade games and sci-fi movies from the 80s fan, you might want to pass on this one. However if you are into the above, you definitely will enjoy.

Milley believed January 6 was a planned, coordinated, synchronized attack on the very heart of American democracy, designed to overthrow the government to prevent the constitutional certification of a legitimate election won by Joe Biden.
