A legendary historian presaged the problems now plaguing the field

By James C. Cobb, April 3, 2023

Jim Cobb, Professor Emeritus, has a timely op-ed in the Washington Post on the state of the historical profession.  It's inspired by his new book on the life and work of historian C. Vann Woodward. 

Akela Reason, associate professor of history at the University of Georgia, will give a gallery talk in conjunction with the exhibition “Object Lessons in American Art.” Her talk will expand on the exhibition through the lens of her expertise in American visual and material culture. Dr. Reason teaches courses in material culture, urban history, museum studies and public history, and she is the director of UGA’s Interdisciplinary Certificate in Museum Studies.

The History at Work series and Professional Development Workshop present a career talk with Simon Taylor.
