History Brown Bag Seminar Series

The History Brown Bag Seminar Series brings together a lively variety of history papers on any region of the world and on periods from the Early Modern era to present, with a diversity of methodologies including historians from outside the History discipline (e.g., Economics, Law and Medicine).

The program includes postgraduate completion seminars, research presentations by visiting scholars, academics returning from a research trip or writing retreat, and new members of staff.

Brown Bag is one of the main regular academic events for SHAPS History staff, postgraduates, fellows and associates. External participants and attendees are also welcome.

The seminars are held largely in-person on Thursdays from 1 to 2pm. Presentations generally last 40 minutes long, with 20 minutes for questions and answers.

A Call for Papers is sent out at least once per year, but expressions of interest can be sent at any time to the convenors of the series, David Goodman and Julia Bowes.

For further information, including to be added to the mailing list, please contact the convenors.
