Future Pasts: Web Archives and Public History as Challenges for Historians of Education in Times of COVID-19

Future Pasts: Web Archives and Public History as Challenges for Historians of Education in Times of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only sparked a renewed interest in history; it has also focused our attention on how the present can be historically preserved. Therefore, it is safe to predict that the COVID-19 crisis and its documentation will be analyzed by future historians, and it will bring about methodological and technological changes that affect our ways of working as historians of education. This chapter will examine the following: First, it looks at some basic characteristics of web archives and how they challenge our work as historians.

Une histoire orale du Minett

Une histoire orale du Minett

The "Minett" region in southern Luxembourg was the industrial heartland of the country. The mines and blast furnaces, most of which have now disappeared, once dominated the landscape. Luciano Pagliarini's collection of interviews constitutes a unique corpus of audio testimonies that allow us to discover the local history and the daily experiences of the inhabitants of that time.

Die Benennungen des Minetts

Die Benennungen des Minetts

Landschafts- und Ortsnamen spielen als Bezugspunkte für die regionale Identität eine wichtige Rolle. Im Süden Luxemburgs haben sich diese Namen im Zusammenhang mit der industriellen Umgestaltung der Landschaft mehrfach geändert. Die Benennungen und Umbenennungen des Minett reflektieren die industrielle Entwicklung der Region. Dieser Aspekt der Geschichte des Minett ist in der Öffentlichkeit wenig bekannt; er verdient es, erzählt zu werden.

Biller aus dem Minett

Biller aus dem Minett

Between 1959 and 1961, the national newspaper Luxemburger Wort published a photo series dedicated to the Minett. These so-called “Biller aus dem Minett” (Images from the Minett) were intended to serve as a platform for amateur photographers, allowing them to show everyday aspects of life in Luxembourg’s industrial region. Today, the approximately 150 “Biller” are a collection of historical interest, which provides a unique view on Luxembourg’s industrial region shortly before the economic downfall.

Men with cameras

Men with cameras

Despite the fact that photography in the Minett had been very popular since the early 1900s, working men with cameras used it to perfect their technique rather than as means of activism or social impact. Towards the 1980s, however, this began to change. Two cases of such transformation are the Fotoclub Diddeleng in the industrial town of Dudelange and the Fotokollektiv Schluechthaus in Esch-sur-Alzette.

Doing Experimental Media Archaeology: Theory

Doing Experimental Media Archaeology: Theory

This book offers a plea to take the materiality of media technologies and the sensorial and tacit dimensions of media use into account in the writing of the histories of media and technology. In short, it is a bold attempt to question media history from the perspective of an experimental media archaeology approach. It offers a systematic reflection on the value and function of hands-on experimentation in research and teaching.

État des connaissances, perspectives de recherches et révision des datations des tertres d’orpaillage dits celtes de l’Ardenne belge

État des connaissances, perspectives de recherches et révision des datations des tertres d’orpaillage dits celtes de l’Ardenne belge

Les tertres d’orpaillage de l’actuel territoire belge ont été identifiés comme tels vers 1876 par J. Jung. Depuis, la connaissance de ces structures n’a que peu évolué, aucun tertre n’ayant été fouillé suivant une méthodologie permettant de les dater sans équivoque. De nombreuses descriptions des formes, tailles et contenus ont été réalisées ainsi que des propositions d’attributions chronologiques reposant sur des hypothèses logiques plutôt que sur des faits empiriques (à la place d’empiriques, écrire scientifiquement démontrés ?) Seul J-M.

Digital Hermeneutics: The Reflexive Turn in Digital Public History?

Digital Hermeneutics: The Reflexive Turn in Digital Public History?

The digital – be it in forms of data, infrastructures, or tools – interferes atall levels in the practice of doing public history. This chapter argues that digitalpublic historians have to reflect more deeply on the epistemological consequencesof their digital practices. It proposes the concept of “digital hermeneutics” as a conceptual framework for this reflection. As a “hermeneutics of in-betweenness,” digital hermeneutics investigates the trading zone of digital public history where new digital methods and approaches meet disciplinary traditions and epistemic cultures of history.
