We are pleased to announce a call for papers for the international conference organised by the Impresso project and the History Department of the University of Lausanne, to be held on 27 and 28 January 2025, on the theme ‘Transmedia History: Circulations, Reconfigurations and New Methodologies’.

The large-scale digitisation of newspapers over the past decade has facilitated access to newspaper collections but also raised a series of issues for both libraries and users, and more specifically researchers: What does it mean to work in new ways with the traditional historical sources that are newspapers? How does the formal transformation of this source from analogue, microfilm and paper collections to digital ones affect research practices and questions?

Call for Associated Researchers to work on 19th – 21st century European historical newspapers as part of an interdisciplinary research project (limited funding available)
