Centre Research Seminar Series – Narration as Action: Temporalities of Migration

On Feb 5th 2020 at the Michaelhouse cafe

We ran a seminar with Dr William O’Reilly (History) reflecting on ways of restoring agency and humanity to migrant experiences.

Mark Tinkler led a brief song writing workshop with participants

William O’Reilly is University Senior Lecturer in Early Modern History. He is the Leibniz Chair in History, German Institute for Maritime History (Deutsches Schiffahrtsmuseum) and is a full-time Fellow, Institute for Advanced Study, Budapest.

William O’Reilly has worked on a range of topics in early modern European and Atlantic history, and is particularly interested in the history of European migration, colonialism and imperialism. His current research project, with the working title Surviving empire. The translation of imperial context in a globalizing world, 1550-1800, explores the inter-relationship of European imperialisms from the later sixteenth century to the French revolution.
