\u003cP\u003e\u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eIf historical culture is the specific and particular ways that a society engages with its past, this book aims to situate the professional practice of public history, now emerging across the world, within that framework. It links the increasingly varied practices of memory and history-making such as genealogy, podcasting, re-enactment, family histories, memoir writing, film-making and facebook histories with the work that professional historians do, both in and out of the academy. \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eMaking Histories asks questions about the role of the expert and notions of authority within a landscape that is increasingly concerned with connection to the past and authenticity. \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eThe book is divided into four parts: \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e\u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e1. Resistance, Rights, Authority \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e2. Memory, Memorialization, Commemoration \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e3. Performance, Transmission, Reception \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e4. Family, Private, Self \u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003e\u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eThe four sections outline major themes emerging in public history across the world in the 21\u003cSUP\u003est\u003c/SUP\u003e century which are all underpinned by the impact of new media on historical practice and our central argument for the volume which advocates a more capacious definition of what constitutes âpublic historyâ. \u003c/P\u003e |
