Old stories in new ways: Using the TV documentary form to revisit national history


In person and online. Booking required for online attendance.

Prof. Kalyvas will discuss the incentives, challenges, dilemmas, and choices of translating abstract arguments into a visual form, using a national history narrative. The talk draws from his experience in co-authoring the seven-part TV documentary series “Disasters & Triumphs” which was broadcasted on Greek TV channel Skai, in January and February 2022.
