  • Cyprus: another Middle East issue

      Historian article
    Although Cyprus, the third largest Mediterranean island, remained nominally under Turkish suzerainty until 1914, the British were established there after the 1878 Congress of Berlin.

In 1999, a BBC Radio 4 poll of prominent historians, politicians and commentators rated Chamberlain as one of the worst Prime Ministers of...

  • How students make sense of the historical concepts of change, continuity and development

      Teaching History article

  • Supporting initial teacher trainees to think about chronology

      Primary History article
    Please note: this resource pre-dates the 2014 National Curriculum and some content and links may be outdated. As a teacher trainer I am very conscious that many prospective primary teachers' formal history education stops at the age of 14. As a consequence their knowledge and understanding of history and sense...

Vivid pictures from and of the past, its material culture, can be stimulating and effective tools for teaching chronology. Their use is not, however, straightforward. Children bring into school mental images and stereotypes about the past...

  • The Paris Commune of 1871

      Classic Pamphlet
    Although a century has passed since the red flag flew for 72 days over the twenty town halls of Paris, the 1871 Commune de Paris cannot be said to belong primarily to historians. The picture of the Communards 'storming the gates of heaven' continues to serve both as a model...

  • Catherine de Medici & the Ancien Regime

      Classic Pamphlet
    Catherine de Medici is one of the most controversial figures of the early modern period. Her name has come to symbolize her age and both have long retained an exceptionally powerful emotive force.
