SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS: “MANORS AT WAR”, MANORIAL RESEARCH CONFERENCE 2024 KAMU Espoo City Museum has the pleasure of inviting you to the 8:th ENCOUNTER conference taking place on June 13th – 15th 2024 in Espoo, Finland.
The conference is held in conjunction with the research project of the KAMU Espoo City Museum: The Espoo Manor, which focuses on the Espoo Manor and its long and rich history. The results of the project are presented in an exhibition presenting the history of the Manor of Espoo and in a scholarly work titled: The Espoo Manor – The Manor on the King’s Road, both published in October 2023. The manor at war The Espoo Manor was founded by King Gustaf I of Sweden in 1556 as part of a network of royal demesnes designed to support the logistics of the Swedish army during the war with Russia 1554– 1557. Manors have historically played an important role during the many periods of conflict across Europe – as strongholds, supply depots, prisons, training centres, headquarters, and hospitals for example. During periods of occupation manors have usually fared badly at the hands of the invading army, and even sometimes at the hands of their own troops. Some manors, on the other hand, owe their existence to the riches their owners acquired in wartime. Manors also had a complicated role to play in both the build up to and the aftermath of wars – as symbols of resistance or occupation, as well as symbols of regeneration or a new political order. The theme of manors in times of war is regrettably current in Europe even today.
Call for papers Participants are invited to send proposals for presentations, which may approach the theme of the seminar, manors, and wars, broadly during the modern period (from about 1500 CE to the present), from different perspectives and addressing questions such as e.g.:
• How have manors been shaped by wartime?
• How did manors operate as economic and logistical centres during wartime?
• What is the history of women within manors and estates caught up in wars?
• When and why were manors rebuilt after periods of destruction during war?
• How did wartime affect the labour forces that manors depended on and what impact did this have?
• What stories emerge from manors in the aftermath of war – as remnants of lost communities, as symbols or resistance or occupation, or as legacies of a changed world?
• Manors and estates during and after the world wars.
• The mission of museums in their presentation of wars. How do museums deal with the dark heritage of war?
Research, preservation, protection and public communication of the cultural heritage of manor houses and estates and war. According to this multiscalar approach, three sessions of a maximum of four presentations will be organized. The length of the presentations is 20 minutes maximum and 10 minutes for discussion. The excellence of applications as well as the experience of the potential contributors will therefore be relevant for choosing the conference contributions.

Avdelningen för Agrarhistoria vid SLU kommer under vårterminen 2024 (20/3–14/6) att ge doktorandkursen Early Modern Social Inequality (7,5 hp).
The objective of this course is to give students insights into the research on inequality in Early Modern Europe in general, and Sweden in particular (c. 1500–1800): the main empirical findings, as well as the methods and the theoretical explanatory models used. The course includes the historiography of how (in-)equality rose as an intellectual concept and as an interest of research; the latest findings concerning how wealth and income inequality shifted over time and between regions; the debates regarding why and how inequality grew; and what consequences inequality had for the population of Early Modern Europe.
Kursen riktar sig till doktorander i historia, ekonomisk historia, agrarhistoria och närliggande ämnen. Den är öppen för alla sökande oavsett lärosäte, utan avgift. Undervisningen äger rum i Ultuna utanför Uppsala, men med möjlighet till hybriddeltagande på distans. Anmälan görs till kursansvarig Martin Andersson på martin.a.andersson(a)slu.se<mailto:martin.a.andersson@slu.se>, senast den 10 mars.

NLHN online Workshop: Who is who in Nordic labour movements? Towards a biographical encyclopaedia of labour activists 28 November 14.00
(zoom link below)
Many people interested in a movement or an organisation often encounter lesser-known names in the sources. It can be difficult to get an overview of the importance of individuals for an organisation's daily work or how organisations are connected through personal networks. One way to find information about individuals is to search in biographical encyclopaedias. During periods, labour movements in the Nordic countries have published bibliographic encyclopaedias, but they are far from complete. Women are often underrepresented and often cover a shorter period of history. We have invited specialists in historical biographies to discuss how a historical encyclopaedia for the Nordic labour movement could be designed based on experiences from similar projects.

Tisdagen den 28 november kl. 13.15-15 hålls en öppen föreläsning och diskussion på temat historieförfalskning, historieförvanskning och forskarens roll.
Inbjuden föreläsare är Ida Östenberg, professor i Antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet. Rubriken för föreläsningen är "Män som förklarar romarriket för mig". Östenberg har gjort sig känd som en orädd fiende till historieförfalskning på sociala medier. Hon kommer att tala om bakgrunden till vårens twitterdebatt (se skärmdump nedan) - och om universitetens ansvar i en digital offentlighet.
Föreläsningen arrangeras inom ramen för Seminariet om historieförfalskning, historieförvanskning och forskarens roll som anordnas av forskningsmiljöerna REMESO och Historiska studier vid LiU, och leds av Ola Larsmo, Gästprofessor vid LiU i Moa Martinsons namn.
TID: Tisdag den 28 november kl. 13.15-15
