Research Seminar

Title: ‘Bodies’

Chair: Professor Alastair Blanshard (Paul Eliadis Chair of Classics and Ancient History)

The School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry uses its School Research Seminars to showcase the work of researchers from across our disciplines, all addressing a common theme.

Please join us and enjoy the work of four of our early career researchers as they showcase their diverse research and illustrate the different ways in which bodies can be understood, managed and experienced.
