edited by Graham Dawson
The papers collected in this publication were originally delivered at the Centre's Launch Symposium on Memory, Narrative and Histories held at the University of Brighton on 6th December 2008.
Invited to provide a personal overview of recent trends, current debates, and new trajectories within their field the five authors whose papers are collected here have taken various approaches to translating their spoken paper into publishable writing, all embracing the ethos of this new series.
