KBR-ULB-UGent Digital Heritage Seminar: Belgian Expansionism in Egypt

The KBR-ULB-UGent Digital Heritage Seminar: Fall 2021: Historical Networks.  In this series from October to December 2021 we will virtually host three academic scholars in presenting their work on cultural heritage and historical networks. Network research serves to enhance our understanding of the human past, by retracing the social, political, or cultural networks from historical materials. We show in this series how these findings and approaches to networks, through a variety of topics, periods and methods, give us unique insights in the past and the materials we use in our work.

- 7 December 2021, 14h, Jan Vandersmissen, History Department, Ghent University & Christophe Verbruggen, History Department, Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities, Ghent University, "Historical Network Research: the case of Governing Belgian Expansionism in Egypt through the Lens of Interlocking Directorates"  

These talks will be held, on Zoom, in English, with questions in French, Dutch or English. The target audience is scholars, but the general public is warmly welcome.

This series is co-organised by KBR’s Digital Research Lab, in cooperation with Université libre de Bruxelles, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, and Ghent University.
