Research Projects
The Northern Network for the Study of the Crusades
The network links together leading scholars in the north of England who work on all aspects of the crusades and related fields of enquiry. The Steering Committee consists of leaders in the respective fields from Manchester Metropolitan University, the universities of Hull, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool and York, Nottingham Trent University and Lancaster University.
The Returning Soldier
The Returning Soldier Network brings together scholars and postgraduate research students looking at the figure of the returning soldier from the ancient world to the modern day. It looks at how veterans have coped with the experience of returning home, how they were received and how they were perceived by the people and communities they returned to.
History of Terrorism Research Network
This network connects historians in the UK and beyond who work on aspects of historical terrorism. Its focus is conceptual: the meaning and use of terrorism have changed over time, yet history can help us to understand this contested concept, how it has changed, and the significances of these changes, for both the histories of terrorism and the societies in which it operated.
