		<description><![CDATA[Both Carinthia and Yugoslavia suffered in WW2. I've always found it interesting that Geoff's experience, was very different - not freedom, to be sure, and not as he would have wished it, but in the circumstances, and compared to other places, pretty tolerable. This surprised me because before I really started considering it, I had an notion that captivity under the Nazis would be all hardship. <a href="http://benjarman.info/2013/06/at-waidmansdorff/">Read full post >></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last post, I wrote about  Carinthia, where my grandfather spent most of the Second World War as a prisoner of war. I've often wondered what impression this left on him; his parents came from Devon and he was born on the New Kent Road and grew up there and in Tooting. So far as I know, he did not leave Britain before the war; to have travelled around the world and ended up in this sleepy, mountainous corner of Austria must have seemed very strange. He visited Klagenfurt again, in the 1960s, but as far as I know, this was his only return visit. He felt a much closer connection, largely because of his friend Ida and her family, with the country which, when I was small, was called Yugoslavia, and which now is called Slovenia. <a href="http://benjarman.info/2013/06/at-bleiburg/">Read full post>></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[History and the past are not the same thing. Doing history is not about creating some facsimile, making a perfect replica, finding the 'correct' facts as if just writing them all down would mean that history was now ‘right’. What we are doing when we think about, write about and remember the past is really to try and say something about how we see ourselves in the present and the future. I've come to Slovenia and Austria in search of my grandfather's wartime experience, but have also learned a lot more about the history of this area, and about how the events of the past still have relevance today. <a href="http://benjarman.info/2013/05/in-carinthia/">Read full post >></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had a couple of excellent days in Austria, where I met up with a local historian called Paul Angerer, who showed incredible kindness in giving up his weekend to drive me around the region and show me the various sites associated with my grandpa.
