This forum explores from multiple perspectives the often stated impression that the nineteenth century is “vanishing” from German and European history. It asks how one can explain this trend, what consequences it has for the development of historiography and public historical knowledge, if and why the nineteenth century matters for the present, and what the future of nineteenth-century history might be. Fourteen experts on different regions and historiographical approaches to European history from the United States and Germany discuss these questions. We sought contributors from these two countries in order to illuminate differences in the historical profession on either side of the Atlantic, and are sure that a broader regional comparison would point to more varieties in the state of historical research on the nineteenth century.

论坛：欧洲历史上消失的19世纪？

本次论坛从多个角度探讨了人们常说的 19 世纪正在从德国和欧洲历史上“消失”的印象。它询问如何解释这一趋势，它对史学和公共历史知识的发展有什么影响，19 世纪是否以及为什么对现在很重要，以及 19 世纪历史的未来可能是什么。来自美国和德国的 14 位不同地区和欧洲历史史学方法的专家讨论了这些问题。我们寻求这两个国家的贡献者，以阐明大西洋两岸历史专业的差异，并确信更广泛的区域比较将指向 19 世纪历史研究状态的更多变化。
