Dr Constantin Ardeleanu (New Europe College – Institute for Advanced Study, Bucharest): The Snake Island from Achilles to Zelenskyy
SNAKLAB. Regensburg Southeastern Europe Research Seminars
A tiny islet in the north-western part of the Black Sea, about 45 kilometres east of the Danube Delta, the Snake Island has a fascinating history, which illuminates larger aspects related to the history of the region. In the 2000s, the delimitation of the maritime boundary close to Snake Island was the object of a Romanian-Ukrainian trial in front of the International Court of Justice. Not least of all, with Russia’s full-fledged war against Ukraine, the Snake Island has assumed new relevance in Ukraine’s defence and in President Zelenskyy’s addresses to the Ukrainian nation. The talk will present the history of this place, which is interesting and worthwhile for those interested in Black Sea history to study. The talk is the joint event of seeFField and Leibniz Science Campus.
Admission is free. All interested parties are welcome.
