British Library

Time1pm
DateTue 21 Jul

Join us for two lunchtime talks.Imperial Ties: Women and the British EmpireMisha Ewen discusses her latest book Imperial Ties: An Intimate History of Women and the British Empire. What do we see when we put women back into the history of the British Empire, and what does it mean to follow in their footsteps and write this history when you yourself are descended from women who were tightly bound with the story?Talk two: Latin American Collections at the Library – A Counter-GuideBy mapping the Latin American holdings at the Library, Santiago Valencia Parra reflects on the questions and limitations involved in working with materials grouped under this geographic designation. He focuses on exploring the collections and on how this process is opening up new ways of thinking about research guides, their content, purpose and audience.
