Law,
History and Visual Culture Seminar Series
Every
Thursday online from 26th May to 23rd June, 3:00-6:30
pm BST
This
five part seminar series encourages and facilitates the growing interest in
the interdisciplinary field of law, history and visual culture. As such,
these reflections break away from the traditional view of law as
an image-less, a text-based discourse. Registration for each event can
be found in the links below:
