Beyond Hope: Archaeology and Collaboration in Castleton with Colin Merrony -Ep 44

Archaeology & Ale is a monthly series of talks presented by Archaeology in the City, part of the University of Sheffield Archaeology Department’s outreach programme. This month we are proud to host Matthew Roberts from Sheffield Hallam University speaking on "A People's History of Sheffield from the French Revolution to Chartism". This talk took place on Tuesday, November 23rd, 2021, online via Google Meets.

Sheffield has a rich tradition of ‘history from below’, in the sense of a long established assertive and proud group of working people who created a rich occupational, social and political culture. From the time of the French Revolution in the 1790s through to the 1850s and beyond, working people increasingly fought for recognition, dignity, protection in the workplace and their rights of citizens. At the centre of these struggles were Sheffield’s metal workers, the cutlers and ‘little mesters’, as well as women and not just as wives but in their own right. What was life like for the working classes of Sheffield during this period? What changes and continuities marked their lives? Why did Sheffield become a centre of radical politics? These are some of the questions we’ll explore in this talk.

Matthew Roberts from Sheffield Hallam University [https://www.shu.ac.uk/about-us/our-people/staff-profiles/matthew-roberts#content]

Matthew Roberts is Associate Professor in Modern British History at Sheffield Hallam University in the UK. He is an historian of nineteenth-century Britain and the Anglophone Atlantic World, and works mainly on the history of popular politics and protest, the visual and material culture of politics, and more recently the history of emotions. His book Chartism, Commemoration and the Cult of the Radical Hero [https://www.routledge.com/Chartism-Commemoration-and-the-Cult-of-the-Radical-Hero/Roberts/p/book/9780367784096] was published by Routledge in 2020, and is now available in paperback.

A People's History of Sheffield from the French Revolution to Chartism with Matthew Roberts - Ep 43

Archaeology & Ale is a monthly series of talks presented by Archaeology in the City, part of the University of Sheffield Archaeology Department’s outreach programme. This month we are proud to host David Price from the University of Sheffield speaking on "Sheffield Troublemakers: Rebels and Radicals in Sheffield History ". This talk took place on Thursday, October 28th, 2021, online via Google Meets.

David Price

David Price studied history at Cambridge. He then went into the civil service. He was private secretary to Willie Whitelaw who later became Deputy Prime Minister. For some years, he worked on the transformation of old employment exchanges into modern Job Centres. In 1980, he moved with the Manpower Services Commission from London to Sheffield. On his retirement he took up history again. His first book was called Office of Hope and was the history of the Job Centres in the UK - originally founded by Winston Churchill and William Beveridge in 1910. Recently, he has been interested in helping asylum seekers in the city which has led him to write a book about migration to Sheffield called 'Welcome to Sheffield: A Migration History'. However, his best known book is about the radical tradition in Sheffield and is called 'Sheffield Troublemakers'. This is the subject of today's talk. In his talk, David will trace Sheffield's long history of radicalism and the important role that Sheffield has played on the national stage. This is a story of dissenting middle classes, independent minded artisans, champions of the weak and an unwillingness to be pushed around.

Sheffield Troublemakers: Rebels and Radicals in Sheffield History with David Price - Ep 42

Archaeology & Ale is a monthly series of talks presented by Archaeology in the City, part of the University of Sheffield Archaeology Department’s outreach programme. This month we are proud to host John R. Collis from the University of Sheffield speaking on "Teaching and Training in Archaeology: a Historical Perspective with John Collis." This talk took place on Wednesday, June 30th, 2021, online via Google Meets.

John Collis, the University of Sheffield [https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/archaeology/our-people/academic-staff/john-collis]

John Collis studied archaeology in Cambridge in the 1960s, but also briefly in Prague, Tübingen and Frankfurt. He was an advisor at the research centre in Mont Beuvray in Burgundy for 17 years, and led excavations and field work in the Auvergne and in central Spain as well as England. He lectured in Sheffield from 1972 to 2005 and was one of the founding members of the department in 1975. He lectured on the European and the British Iron Age, and is mainly known for his writings on the Iron Age, urbanisation and the problems of the Celts. He also lectured on excavation techniques, and wrote Digging up the Past based on his lectures. However he was also writing about the training of archaeologists, and was chair of the Teaching and Training Committee of the Chartered Institute of Archaeologists (of which he was as a founding member), and helped introduce Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for archaeologists. He also set up the Teaching Committee of the European Association of Archaeologists to discuss the impact of the ‘Bologna’ structure on university degree courses and its impact on archaeology. He was advisor to the first European ‘Profiling the Profession’ led by Kenny Aitchison. He has written several articles on the ways in which training is given and different European traditions of teaching, digging and defining archaeologists.
