Interpreting

Members of Department III share their ideas and research with widely varied audiences, both specialists and non-specialists:

Members of the department use digital and other media to create presentations of their research topics and approaches. With the aim of inculcating non-scholarly understanding of historical work, outreach projects such as Sound of Silk generate both new perspectives and new audiences.

The Artist-In-Residence for Department III interprets departmental research themes and topics through alternate forms of narrative.

Public engagement is an important aspect of the department’s activities. Members of Department III engage in conversation with the wider public through communication with the mainstream press and other outlets of mass communication.
