Shaping Canberra: The Lived Experience of Place Home & Capital: Call for Papers - Research School of Humanities and the Arts - ANU - Research School of Humanities and the Arts - ANU

Shaping Canberra will generate new national scholarly discussion about the lived experience of Canberra as a place, home and capital. It starts from the position that the local and national dimensions of Canberra are not opposing or even separate aspects, but deeply entwined. On this basis it asks participants to consider how the local, national (and international) play out in instances and reflections of Canberra’s life and development in the context of four themes: histories and memories, collections and archives, spaces and places; expressions and interpretations.
