Memory and the work of forgetting: telling protest in rural England

Talk by Dr Carl Griffin, Reader in Historical Geography, University of Sussex

Ross House, Dornoch

Organised by UHI Centre for History. Talk also available on video-conferencing.

This paper offers an initial attempt to think through how, against markers of traumatic pasts, English rural communities in the long eighteenth century attempted both to forget and to reinscribe the past in usable ways.
