Hello, I’m Olga, a historian. I’ve been fond of history all my life, and the PhD thesis, I'm finishing at he moment, is a result of this passion.
The lectures and seminars I offer, seek to provide the key points, the logic of the events, not only facts. I believe that a lively discussion makes more sense than a passive listening.
