DESCRIPTION:Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany\, along with other 
 twentieth-century authoritarian regimes\, have oft
 en attempted to create consensus through propagand
 istic reinterpretations of the classical past. As 
 recent scholarship has shown\, the Fascist appropr
 iation of romanità and Nazi philhellenism were not
  only conditioned by prior cultural receptions of 
 antiquity\, but were also a key political tool in 
 motivating and mobilizing citizens to fulfill the 
 aims of the fascist state.\n\nOnce Fascism and Naz
 ism had fallen\, the material legacies of both reg
 imes then became the object of destruction\, reint
 erpretation and memory work. Thus\, the archaeolog
 ical and architectural heritage of these regimes\,
  now tainted by their ideology\, has not only suff
 ered the consequences of damnatio memoriae in the 
 aftermath of regime change\, but continues even to
 day to inflame contemporary public debate.\n\nThis
  interdisciplinary workshop will bring together a 
 group of international experts\, including histori
 ans of Germany and Italy\, classicists\, archaeolo
 gists and art historians\, to explore the complex 
 relationships between antiquity and materiality\, 
 both during and after Fascism and National Sociali
 sm. Our aim is to examine the shifting conditions 
 of the reception of antiquity under dictatorial re
 gimes\, and the fate of fascist material legacies 
 from the aftermath of the Second World War to the 
 present day.\n\nThe workshop is a joint collaborat
 ion between the Cambridge Heritage Research Centre
 \, the Department of Archaeology\, and the Faculty
  of History at the University of Cambridge. It wil
 l be the first of a series of workshops on the the
 me of Heritage and Dictatorship\, and has been awa
 rded generous funding by the new Cambridge DAAD Re
 search Hub for German Studies. It will also form a
  launchpad for ‘Claiming the Classical’\, a new ne
 twork for scholars interested in political appropr
 iations of the classical past.\n\nOrganized by Dr.
  Helen Roche (Faculty of History)\, Flaminia Barto
 lini (Department of Archaeology)\, and Timothy J. 
 Schmalz (Faculty of History)\n\nProgramme\n\nSTART
