CONFERENCE
The history of the world is filled with many notable and significant events that have fundamentally changed the course of human development. In the context of these pivotal moments, there are countless actors and objects that can only be appreciated through an in-depth close-up. Using a variety of examples to demonstrate how the examination of the smallest, often overlooked elements can enhance our understanding of the larger narrative of history and influence how history is presented. The goal of the History and Archaeology doctoral student’s section is to focus on micro-history.
