Exhibiting The Past: Public Histories Of Education (Public History In European Perspectives, 1)

One of the primary missions of the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C2DH) is to be a key player in public history. With the launch of its new book series, Public History from European Perspectives, the C2DH wants to serve as a platform for public history, exploring its potential as an interdisciplinary field and a means of fostering and reflecting upon public engagement, dissemination and participatory practices in areas such as heritage-making, modes of display, and historical storytelling. (Public) historians, scholars in material culture studies, communication studies and museum studies, curators and archivists are invited to submit proposals on the methodological foundations of disseminating historical knowledge in the broadest sense, on interactions with public audiences, and on the epistemological consequences of mediation, remediation, and intermediation. It is critical to encourage work on ethical issues in the field of public history, on the cultural but also political, social and economic consequences of public history projects, on working with minority groups and establishing more inclusive agendas for community engagement. The editorial board members for the book series are renowned experts in the field and ensure outstanding quality by acting as peer reviewers and advisors to the series editor. The book series is trilingual (English, French and German) and offers options for open access.
