Mark & Feedback

 

Project Mark: 81%.

Many thanks for submitting this engrossing, well designed and highly successful project/report which  exceeds normal expectations of work at this level. This is a highly polished and critically engaged piece that  brims with ideas and observations on public history, historiography and insights that go well beyond purely local history.

I am particularly struct by the  discussion of the historiography of public history and your use of Watts’ text as a counter to what you see as the nostalgia, defensiveness  and insularity of much contemporary historical practice.

This succeeds on many levels and is a model of its kind. Well done.
