Researchers at the German Historical Institute London pursue a wide range of topics on British, German, colonial, and global history, and on British-German relations, from the Middle Ages to the present day. Most fellows focus on their first or second book, while others work on scholarly editions and digital humanities projects. The Institute concentrates its activities on arranging conferences and acquiring external funding in current staff members’ areas of expertise. Our research is organised in three areas: British History, European Perspectives, and Colonial and Global History. Additional overarching themes cut across the research areas – namely, Concepts, Categories, and Orders of Knowledge; Gender and Society; and Expanding the Archive: Revisiting Historical Sources and Methods. The Institute’s Digital Humanities Strategy emphasizes projects that involve the historical analysis of social-science-generated or state-created mass datasets, using digital tools and methods such as statistical software and text mining.
