  • Descrição: The expansion and evolution of local history over the last half century has given rise to both celebration and critical self-reflection. This attention has been stimulated by the continued importance of local history as a popular cultural activity, in parallel with, paradoxically, a relatively recent decline in academic teaching provision in the subject. The reflection on the characteristics and role of local history has yielded searching consideration of its relationship with the pursuit of history more broadly, most especially in the academic discipline. However, little work has approached comprehending local history as being by its very nature also heritage. This paper turns to a series of essays by academic and non-academic practitioners for a county history society's journal over a period of 35 years, in order to shed light on the place of local history in evolving understandings of heritage as process.
