Salem's Centuries 3:40 - 4:40 pm | faculty & graduate panel session III Bertolon Central Classroom Building room 114
Writers and editors of the forthcoming book Salem's Centuries share their research. Salem’s Centuries will introduce readers to fascinating stories of Salem’s residents and new perspectives on Salem’s significance in both American and world history. Its essays, all works of original scholarship, will engage in important conversations in academic and public history, while also appealing to general readers who are curious about this most fascinating of American small cities. While it covers all four centuries of Salem’s existence, Salem’s Centuries gently shifts the focus slightly away from the more heavily trafficked terrain of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and towards the uncharted territory of the nineteenth and twentieth, when successive waves of immigration, progressive politics, economic transformations, and diverse cultural expressions (including tourism) combined to create the Salem of today.
