On 12 February 2014 the Centre for the History of War and Society and the Centre for Life History and Life Writing Research at the AVÊÓƵ hosted a talk by Dr Stephen Weiss (King’s College).
Presented in association with the Centre for the History of War and Society
Dr Stephen Weiss
Born in 1925, Weiss has an incredibly fascinating life story as a Second World War veteran who landed in Southern France in 1944, fought alongside the French Resistance, and subsequently became a psychoanalyst, academic researcher in war studies and military historian. One of the most internationally decorated World War Two veterans, on Armistice Day 2013 Dr Stephen Weiss was awarded the rank of Commander of the French Legion of Honour by the French Ambassador in London.
