EDITOR’S NOTE:
Located in a 19th-century mews building in the heart of Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, New York University’s Deutsches Haus organizes a broad cultural program designed to create a bridge between contemporary Germany and the U.S. Conferences, workshops, and lectures attract not only students and professors from all disciplines but also members of the surrounding community whose intellectual curiosity inspires them to learn more about German-speaking countries, their relationship to the USA and the changing world.
