Sanctums of Science and Scholarship visits the Academy of Finland Centre of Excellence in the History of Experiences (HEX) at Tampere University (https://research.tuni.fi/hex/) on May 9, 2023!

The Centre of Excellence studies the role and place of experiences in society and in explaining history. It presents a new approach, history of experiences, to establish how people’s experiences are formed, how they are interpreted and how they influence individuals’ relationships to their community and to society at large.
