Decolonising Victorian histories

Decolonising Victorian histories: Frank Oates, geographic exploration and teaching imperial history and environmental science

Research by Dr Christopher Prior and colleagues

Funded via a NERC-AHRC Hidden Histories of Environmental Science.

Team leader: Dr Christopher Prior, University of Southampton

Project partners:

  • Gilbert White’s Museum

  • Royal Geographical Society (with IBG)

  • Geographical Association

 

Researchers will create a repository of historical and geographical teaching and learning practices for secondary schools focused on the yet to be studied collection of Victorian explorer Frank Oates.

The aim is to explore ways the next generation of students can learn of diverse and inclusive socio-cultural and environmental histories.

The collection is held at the Gilbert White’s House museum in Selborne, northern Hampshire.
