The Shannon Lectures in History<\/strong> is a series of thematically linked public lectures offered annually at Carleton University made possible through the Shannon Donation, a major anonymous gift from a friend of the Department of History. Click here<\/a> for further information about the Shannons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shannon Lecture Series for 2015 examines ways in which our understanding of the past is enhanced through performance. What does it mean when our histories take alternative forms such as film, theatre, re-enactment, cabaret, and virtual gaming? How does re-staging the past in these ways shape the history that is produced and how audiences experience the past? Our exploration of performed histories and historians as performers will be encouraged by five scholars and practitioners who will talk about their work in a series of Friday afternoon lectures: Lisa Peschel, Bruno Ramirez, Maxime Durand, Vanessa Agnew, and Peter Hinton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
