The History Forum

The History Forum is a meeting place for all those with an interest in history to learn about current research, discuss current trends in the discipline and share ideas.

Meetings for the History Forum are held during the semester usually on every other Friday.  

Seminars are held on campus at 4:30pm in the New Bruce St. John Room in the Faculty of Humanities and Education (unless otherwise stated). Presentations to the Forum include workshop papers, panel discussions, debates and reviews of important new publications, as well as traditional formal papers.


The Department of History and Philosophy is welcoming proposals for presentations for 2010-11. Please feel free to contact Dr Tara Inniss for further information at tara.inniss@cavehill.uwi.edu or innisst@yahoo.com.
