Rationale for Establishment of UCD Centre for the History of Media

Rationale for Establishment
The Centre was launched with the ambition of offering an interdisciplinary forum for researchers from across the University and beyond to explore the history of the media, giving equal attention to the pre-modern and modern periods. Its objective is to promote two main areas of scholarly enquiry: the study of the media within a broad contextual framework and meaningful interdisciplinary discourse.
