The next Department of History local history seminar will take place on Saturday 19 March 2016 at 10am-12.30pm, in A18/19, Lenton Grove, University Park.
In this session, David Appleby will talk about his current research into the demobilised soldiery of the British Civil Wars, both in the 1640s and after the Restoration, and how this research has fed into the creation and future plans of the new National Civil War Centre in Newark. In part 2 of the seminar - still keeping with the theme of 'After the Storm' - the discussion will move on to consider the current state of Civil War and Restoration historiography. Dr Appleby is Lecturer in Early Modern British History at the University of Nottingham, and a historical adviser to the National Civil War Centre.
The Department of History's local history seminars are open to all with an interest in local and regional history. Booking is not necessary and the entry fee of £5 includes refreshments.
