On Wednesday 7 December we will have our final History research seminar for 2016. We are delighted to be joined by Professor David Woolner, currently the 2016/17 Mary Ball Washington Professor in American History at University College Dublin. Professor Woolner is Senior Fellow and Hyde Park Resident Historian of the Roosevelt Institute, Senior Fellow of the Centre for Civic Engagement at Bard College, and Associate Professor of History at Marist College. The (extremely timely) title of Professor Woolner’s paper is ‘”The Only Thing We Have To Fear is, Fear Itself”: FDR, Donald Trump and the Future of American Progressivism.’ As usual, the seminar begins at 4.30pm in Lipman 121.
