Delving into the Archives: A Screen History Workshop co-hosted by De Montfort University and the University of Leicester (a Midlands4Cities-funded Dialogue Day).
This online half-day event is aimed at aspiring and existing postgraduate students whose research interests in Media History involve using archival sources. From leaders in the field to current PhDs, our expert presenters will explore a range of skills and approaches to archival screen history, offer opportunities to engage with different kinds of material, and advise on research design and dissemination. Plenty of scope to share practice and ask questions.
Tuesday 10th November, between 10am and 1pm.
