课程简介

课程名称:应用公共历史:地点、人物、故事 概述:本课程旨在引导学习者理解和解读当今的公共历史,并积极参与不同社区的历史分享与创造。课程通过项目案例研究、专家见解和多样化视角,展示如何研究和讲述地方与人物的历史。学习者将通过参与讨论、测验、创造性活动和迷你大师班,开发适用于自身实践的工具包。 课程将探讨以下问题:我们通过对地方和人物历史的研究可以发现什么样的故事?我们如何与这些故事互动并吸引不同的社区?我们可以使用怎样富有想象力的方法来解读过去?我们能创造哪些工具和机会,以邀请新群体和个体参与地方研究倡议?本课程由伦敦大学历史研究所的人民、地方与社区历史中心主办,旨在探究这些问题,帮助学习者发展可转移的地方历史和文化遗产解读方法。 课程大纲: 1. **你的地方**:第一周,我们将认识课程讲师,并通过历史英格兰及伦敦图层等机构探讨地点与历史。我们将学习如何理解地方的历史和遗产,以及如何让社区参与到历史环境的理解中。还将探讨历史地图对地方和历史的揭示,与伦敦项目的众包成果分享。 2. **发现故事**:第二周,将介绍一些优秀的案例研究项目,探索有趣的历史故事及其讲述和分享的方法。通过青年俱乐部档案,反思不同受众的故事收集和讲述方式,讨论如何通过物品讲述故事,以及收集叙利亚难民口述历史的项目。 3. **公共历史与创造性实践**:第三周,将探讨应用公共历史与艺术的交集,借鉴各种项目学习艺术及其合作对历史解读的影响,探讨历史重演与服装解释,及创意地图所呈现的地方及其历史。学习者还有机会参与创意大师班,反思创造性方法在应用公共历史工作中的作用。 4. **历史与现在**:第四周,将考察如何在现在纪念历史,包括周年庆典、雕像、蓝色铭牌和纪念碑,关注排斥和缺失的线索。学习如何利用历史在当今社会做出积极的干预。 5. **共同研究**:第五周,讨论如何将“观众”转变为主动研究者,参与式研究和共同生产如何增进对过去及其当下重要性的理解,探索社区档案工作与众包的新方法。 6. **沟通与评估**:第六周,聚焦课程中贯穿始终的沟通主题,巩固沟通技能,回顾案例研究。还将反思评估与未来发展的机会,为学习者提供回顾自身参与的机会。 本课程为学习者提供了一个全面探索应用公共历史和促进社区参与的机会。

课程大纲

Name:Your Place

Description:In this first week, we’ll meet the course presenters, and explore place and history with help from Historic England, Layers of London and others. How do we get a sense of the history and heritage of a place, and how can we involve our communities in understanding the historic environment? We’ll look at the professional practice of describing historic places and buildings, as well as what maps can reveal about place and history – with special access to historic maps in the Institute of Historical Research archive, and reflections on 'deep mapping' in the crowdsourced Layers of London project. There's also a chance for you to introduce yourself: the first step in forming our virtual community and sharing our varied experiences and expertise.

Name:Discovering Stories

Description:This week, we'll explore some fantastic case-study projects, to discover fascinating stories from history, and approaches to recovering and sharing the past. With the help of Youth Club Archive, we'll reflect on different approaches to collecting and telling stories, with varied audiences in mind. Through the Victoria County History 'Red Boxes' project, we'll look at how stories can be told through objects. And we'll look at how a project gathering the oral histories of Syrian refugees brings together different participants and communities.

Name:Public History and Creative Practice

Description:Where does applied public history meet creative practice? This week, we'll learn from a range of projects to explore what art, and artistic collaborations, can bring to interpretation of the past, to examine historical re-enactment and costumed interpretation, and to look at how a creative approach to mapping might draw a place and its history in imaginative, thought-provoking and engaging ways. There's also an opportunity to try your own creative skills by joining in a creative masterclass! Whether you're naturally an artistic type or not, this week is an opportunity to consider creative approaches for your own applied public history work and projects, and to reflect on what these methods facilitate.

Name:History and the Present

Description:Anniversaries, statues, blue plaques and monuments - history is all around us in the present, in our places and in our public debates. This week, we'll examine how history is commemorated today, with attention to lines of exclusion and absences. We'll look at strategies for mobilising history to make positive interventions in present-day society, with perspectives from the #RememberHer project on female memorials in London, the Haringey Peace Forum (working on World War 1 conscientious objectors), and History Workshop Online, with their activist approach to 'history of the present'.

Name:Research Together

Description:How do you transform an 'audience' into active researchers? What can engaged, participatory research and co-production add to our understanding of the past and its significance in the present? This week we'll talk to Layers of London, the Victoria County History in Leicestershire, and the Runnymede Trust's 'Our Migration Story' project team, to explore new approaches to uncovering history, from community archive work to crowdsourcing.

Name:Communication and Evaluation

Description:Applied Public History is all about communication. This week, we'll return to the core thread of communication which has run across the course, consolidating our skills with attention to some new case studies, and returning to others. We'll also step back and think about evaluation and how to identify opportunities for future development - including a chance for you to reflect on your own participation in this course. We'll hear from projects including 'Being Human' - a National Festival of the Humanities, Layers of London, #RememberHer, and more.

This course introduces learners to applied public history: understanding and interpreting the past today, and engaging diverse communities in the practice of making and sharing histories. The course draws on project case studies, expert insights and diverse perspectives to model exciting approaches to researching and sharing the history of places and people. Learners will develop a toolkit to apply in their own practice, by participating in discussion, quizzes, creative activities and mini masterclasses. What kinds of stories can we discover through research into the history of places and people? How do we engage diverse communities with those stories today? What kinds of imaginative approaches can we use to interpret the past? And what tools and opportunities can we create to include new groups and individuals in local research initiatives? Led by the Centre for the History of People, Place and Community at the Institute of Historical Research, University of London – the UK’s national centre for history – this course investigates these questions and helps learners develop transferable approaches to their own local history and heritage interpretation.
