Abstract

The topic of ‘mental health,’ which is currently the subject of much public discussion, is also a rapidly growing area of research that has gained further momentum due to the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic, including long-term effects, lockdowns, or economic instability. However, public and scientific discourses surrounding mental health and illness, as well as the social challenges of caring for individuals experiencing mental health issues or psychological distress, are not new phenomena.

Eva Tamara Asboth, Austrian Academy of Sciences & Universität Klagenfurt

Eva Tamara Asboth is a historian and communication scholar working as a postdoctoral researcher at the CMC since 2022. Her transdisciplinary work focuses on the intersections between media, memory and crisis. Her monograph "Transnational and Transatlantic Perspectives on the Balkans, 1850-1918", examines how actors encountering new spaces and cultures mediated and transferred their knowledge and influenced media content. She spent two short-term research stays in New York during her doctoral studies. Research into the oral history of the post-Yugoslavian generation accompanied her focus on Southeast Europe. One of her current projects uses group oral histories to explore young generations’ historical and democratic dispositions through social media in the context of current crises. As a media historian, she is interested in the development of female publics. Her main project reconstructs the women’s media landscape in inter-war Austria and links it to their lifeworlds during the rise of fascism.
