What do you imagine researching secret histories looks like? A Julia Roberts-like character hovering over old books and dusty documents in a beautiful, dim-lit library, when - just as they are about to close - she finds it ... that smoking gun, that file that makes sense of it all, that changes everything... ? Do all researchers really live such exciting lives? How does new, primary-source historical research come about?
Dr. Daniela Richterova of Brunel University London shares her thoughts on this exciting, yet at sometimes also frustrating, process.
