HistoryLab 20th Anniversary Annual Conference 2026 — Call for Papers

Embodied Histories: Body, Mind, and Experience

17th July 2026 | Hybrid Conference, in-person at University of Birmingham, Staff House, Grand Central Room

The human body is both a biological reality and a cultural construct. It is a site of meaning, experience, and power. From rituals of health and healing to practices of regulation, discipline, and display, bodies have both shaped and been shaped by their historical contexts.
We invite papers that place the body and lived experience at the centre of historical inquiry, engaging with themes such as medicine, disability, gender, the senses, and the emotions. We welcome contributions that explore how bodies and experiences have been represented, regulated, or performed, and how these processes intersect with broader questions of identity, power, culture, and society across periods and regions.

This conference also marks the 20th anniversary of HistoryLab. Since its founding, HistoryLab has provided a national platform for postgraduate and early career historians to share ideas, foster collaboration, and build community. We invite participants to join us in celebrating this milestone year.

Our next seminar is happening on Thursday 30th October and is titled "From Displacement to Belonging: Heritage, Identity, and Generational Change in Post-1974 Cyprus". Join us with Lara Peeraer to learn more about displacement in Cyprus since the 1974 division. (1/2)
From Displacement to Belonging: Heritage, Identity, and Generational Change in Post-1974 Cyprus

Lara Peeraer
(Erasmus Mundus, University of Glasgow)


Lara Peeraer graduated in 2024 with a Master’s in Art History and Archaeology from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. Her research focuses on the intersections of heritage, history, and social identity, with particular interest in how cultural heritage fosters belonging and wellbeing. She has contributed to cultural diplomacy projects such as Wonderlust and international cultural festivals, and gained experience as an intern with EUNIC. Currently, she is pursuing a second Master’s in Arts and Cultural Heritage Management in Global Markets (Erasmus Mundus, University of Glasgow), further specializing in heritage as a tool for social wellbeing.

October 30 2025| 17.30 - 19.00| Online, via zoomFrom Displacement to Belonging
Lara Peeraer



This paper examines the history of internal displacement in Cyprus since the division in 1974 and its impact on the current identity of the community and its engagement with heritage. The research focuses on the village of Dromolaxia and how internally displaced persons (IDPs) and their descendants experience local heritage and their sense of connection to it. Based on theories of social identity, place identity and place attachment, it examines how displacement has damaged the relationship between IDPs and the heritage of their new place of residence. Survey data is used to examine generational differences in awareness, familiarity and involvement with heritage. First-generation IDPs remain more attached to the heritage of their place of origin, and often have a weaker connection with the local heritage of Dromolaxia and are involved in archaeological initiatives to a limited extent. Second-generation displaced persons, on the other hand, show a shift. Their familiarity with local sights, participation in heritage activities and willingness to engage in conservation are approaching the level of long-term residents. This transition suggests that, although displacement initially severed place identity, second-generation residents are less affected by this due to the similar internal cultures and customs of the country. The findings show that heritage in post-conflict Cyprus is a dynamic process of identity formation. In contexts of displacement, heritage functions both as an anchor to the past and as a path to new forms of connectedness. By acknowledging the historical depth of displacement and involving displaced persons in inclusive heritage practices, heritage management can promote dialogue, social cohesion and long-term community participation. More broadly, the case of Dromolaxia illustrates how heritage can mediate the legacy of conflict and support intergenerational processes of identity restoration.

Our first seminar of the academic year is taking place on Thursday 2nd October! 🤩 Tawana Kunaka will be presenting her research titled British Brute and Benevolence which investigates the role of colonial violence and the mystique of British anti-racism in sustaining imperial authority. (1/2)
History Lab Presents "British brute and Benevolence: An Investigation into the use of Colonial Violence and the Mystique of Anti-British Racism During British Imperialism in Relation to the Baptist War (1831-1) and the Morant Bay Rebellion (1865) by Tawana Kunaka. 2nd October, 5.45pm-7pm, online via Zoom.

Tawana Kunaka holds a BA in History and Politics from the University of Liverpool. She is now pursuing an MA in Contemporary British History at King’s College London, focusing on the impact of colonialism on Britain and its influence on racialised perceptions of immigrants and non-white Britons. In 2025, she presented at the Lancaster Postgraduate Conference on her paper ‘Stella Dadzie and the Significance of experience on the Black radical tradition’. Tawana’s research seeks to contribute as a progressive force in academia, using historical inquiry not only to understand the past but also to envision more equitable futures.This research investigates the role of colonial violence and the mystique of British anti-racism in sustaining imperial authority. Popular memory of the British Empire often omits the violence found within the colonial period, instead Britain is often presented as a benevolent power committed to justice and humanitarian progress. By using Perry’s conception of the ‘mystique of British anti-racism’, this study examines how such myths were constructed and maintained despite repeated episodes of colonial brutality.
