Professor Ian Kershaw will give this year’s annual Ramsay Murray Lecture tomorrow, entitled 'The End of Europe's Second Thirty Years' War'.

The Ramsay Murray lecture is an annual event organised by Selwyn College following a bequest from the late Lt Col Ramsay Murray, a loyal alumnus of the College who was resident at Selwyn during the 1930s.

Since the series began in 1994 a number of well-known academics have spoken at the event, such as Sir Michael Howard, Sir Keith Thomas, Professor Roy Porter, Professor Ian Clark, Professor Lawrence Freedman, Dr Onora O’Neill and Professor Niall Ferguson.

Professor Ian Kershaw is Professor of Modern History at the University of Sheffield. His research interests include Twentieth-century German history and his current work focuses on the Third Reich.

The lecture takes place at 5.30pm on Friday 6 May in Room LG18, Faculty of Law, Sidgwick Site, Cambridge. All are welcome and admission is free.
