This workshop provides a forum to discuss and develop work that takes seriously social history methodology the history of everyday life and people who have been excluded from dominant historical narratives. The workshop focuses primarily on the United States but also examines issues that transcend U.S. boundaries, such as race, class, gender, and sexuality. Presentations by visitors are interspersed with those of regular participants and frequently include dissertation proposals, chapters in progress, and overviews of dissertations in progress. Occasional sessions are devoted to discussion on methodological and theoretical issues in historical research. Participants include graduate students and faculty in social, cultural, and intellectual history and related disciplines.
