Making Public Histories
Melbourne Rare Book Week
Threats to democratic and republican regimes in the contemporary world have caused historians to reflect on how they fail. Are they vulnerable to authoritarian and military threats, or are they victims of their own shortcomings? Join three historians, who specialise in very different periods in world history, as they explore these issues with host Peter McPhee. Each panellist will draw on rare historical sources to shed light on this fundamental issue.
