Prof. Dr. Irmela Marei Krüger-Fürhoff (Berlin): Graphic Medicine: Comics as Intervention—The Case of Aging and Dementia
Comics with a medical focus center on personal experiences and their impact on interpersonal relationships. They reflect on our relationship with our own bodies and their significance in sociocultural contexts.
Irmela Marei Krüger-Fürhoff, Professor of Modern German Literature at the Free University of Berlin, explores in her lecture the extent to which graphic narratives open up new avenues for reflection on aging and the physical and mental limitations that accompany it.
