EIHS Workshop: The Media of History
Tori Herzig-Deribin, John Mirsky, Kristi Rhead, Helmut Puff (moderator)
This workshop explores the intricate ways in which history is mediated to us, and how different mediums shape our understanding of the past and its connection to the present. With perspectives from anthropology, history, and sociology, this panel investigates the forms of media that contextualize the histories we write and that societies consume. From radio to TikTok, this workshop moves beyond the content to critically examine the frameworks and possibilities these forms offer for scholarly engagement.
