Welcome to the Connecting Memories collaborative research initiative website!
Connecting Memories is a collaborative interdisciplinary research initiative opening up a space for previously unconnected scholars working on memory to interact, to share their perspectives and reflections on what memory means in the context of their research. Our objective is to connect scholars working on memory locally and from further afield too.
At the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, the Connecting Memories initiative's activities migrated online. While we look forward to holding in-person events in future, for the time being the Connecting Memories Podcast will remain the focus of our activities.
Connecting Memories was co-founded by Dr Paul Armstrong Leworthy and Dr Bárbara Fernández Melleda in 2017.
Past Connecting Memories events include lectures by guest speakers including Prof Astrid Erll, Prof John Sutton, Prof Ann Rigney, Prof Anne Whitehead, Prof Jay Winter, Prof Andrew Hopkins, Prof Richard Morris and Prof Sir Tom Devine. These talks have either taken the form of keynote lectures delivered at the University of Edinburgh or talks integrated into a podcast format.
Other events have included a 10-week film screening series, one in-person symposium and one held online. For a full list of past events, please see here. For more information about the Connecting Memories Podcast and details of past and forthcoming episodes, please see here.
