From Warwick and back: A journey through history and memory- An interdisciplinary roundtable in honour of Professor Jay Winter
FAB0.03 Faculty of Arts Building

Professor Jay Winter is a world-leading authority on the history of modern Europe who has made a remarkable contribution to the study of the “age of extremes (E. Hobsbawm).” Best known perhaps for his work on the First World War, Jay Winter has produced a rich body of scholarship which reshaped our understanding of the era of total war. His work has deployed a wide range of methodological approaches: from historical demography to cultural history, through intellectual, economic and urban history.

Jay Winter is also a prominent practitioner of public history and contributed to several major museal and memory projects around the world. The Great War and the Shaping of the 20th Century, the series he wrote and co-produced for PBS and BBC, won an Emmy Award, a Peabody Award and a Producers Guild of America Award for best television documentary.

Jay started his long and distinguished career at Warwick in the Centre for Social History set up by E. P. Thomson. We are delighted to welcome him back to campus to discuss his scholarly journey through history and memory.

You are warmly invited to join us for an interdisciplinary roundtable on the impact of his work on history, memory studies, film and television studies, and literary and cultural studies.
