<\/span>Making Waves: Oliver Lodge and the Cultures of Science, 1875-1940<\/span><\/a><\/span>

<\/span>Call for Papers: <\/span><\/div>\n

Workshop 1: \"Civic Science: Oliver Lodge, Physics, and the Modern University\"<\/span><\/div>\n

The physicist Oliver Lodge spent most of his scientific career at the newly founded University College Liverpool before joining the University of Birmingham as its first Principal in 1900, retiring in 1919.  This workshop, the first in a series of four organized by James Mussell and Graeme Gooday\u2019s AHRC Research Network \u2018Making Waves, Oliver Lodge and the Cultures<\/a>of Science, 1875-1940\u2019, will investigate both the place of science within the university and the place of the university in the city. Hosted by the Centre for the Study of Cultural Modernity at the University of Birmingham, we invite papers that consider Lodge\u2019s legacy for the University and Birmingham, as well as those that consider the place of science in the civic university at the end of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
