But for what purpose and with what value?</p><p><italic>Talking History</italic> provides a defence of the seminar as a central element in historians’ teaching, research and sense of community. Covering a range of the IHR’s long-running seminar series, the book presents the seminars as a local, national and international hub for scholarship that emerges from and is sustained by the ongoing learning practices of historians as scholars and people. It bears witness to a seminar culture of evolving, multifarious synergies between teaching, researching and learning, historiography and participation – intertextual, interpersonal, intergenerational and intercultural. Viewed as such, the seminars constitute a living tradition, stimulating and incorporating dynamic change over time to contribute not just to the development of historiography but to intellectual life more generally, often in conversation with major political events and cultural phenomena.</p><p>This original and significant book delivers fresh insight into the evolution of historical research and its role in wider society today.</p> 01 00 03 02 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/lbja4300_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press London, GB 04 19 2024 06 15 9781915249043 06 15 9781914477614 06 15 9781915249050 09 University of London Press 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/talking-history/ 99 04 09 University of London Press 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/lbja4300.pdf 99 04
