Disruptions<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme of this year\u2019s issue of the PGF E-Journal seeks to reflect on the way in which \u201cdisruptions\u201d have shaped historical events and processes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies of history are littered with the disruptions of peoples and places, politics and religion, memory and belief, but the term itself is rarely used. This issue offers new perspectives from the use of the concept of disruption, and looks at the extent to which it can be utilised. Disruptions can occur on a macro and micro scale, but does this change the meaning of the concept?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, the journal has also been officially renamed as PONS AELIUS: Newcastle History, Classics and Archaeology Postgraduate E-Journal.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
