Welcome to the Oxford Centre for Intellectual History Blog

Welcome to the Oxford Centre for Intellectual History Blog! 

The CIH blog is a space to publish and read about some of the latest research by MSt students, DPhil candidates, and Early Career Researchers. Here at Oxford, students and academics across multiple faculties work on a diverse range of periods and subject-matter in Intellectual History. We would like to share these projects with you through short research pieces, interviews and more.

If you have an idea for a blog you would like to pitch, please get in touch with Jacob Chatterjee (jacob.chatterjee@balliol.ox.ac.uk). Blogposts should be 600-800 words. They can explore methodological problems, summarise previous or ongoing research, or present small case-studies of a wider project.
