IHR Modern Religious History Seminar

On 29 March, we welcome the authors of the new important study "The Humanist Movement in Modern Britain" to the ISHASH Webinar Series. Brown, Nash & Lynch will present and discuss their work on a 1 hour zoom seminar. As always: all are welcome!

Of interest to many historians of religion who follow us, I am sure.

You can now read @MBinAmsterdam's introduction to our latest special issue 'Historians in the Study of Religion\s' @WileyHumanities onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/14…

Excited about our festive seminar this evening (mince pies and mulled wine on offer!) to discuss Bill Jacob’s 'Religious Vitality in Victorian London'. 17:15, KCL - Virginia Woolf Building (VWB) and hybrid (DM if you need the link)!

1/2 Very sad to hear of the death of John Walsh. For a whole generation of Oxford trained historians of modern British religion he was our mentor, friend and supporter, modelling a kind and generous approach to scholarship with no sacrifice of rigour. I owe him so much.
