YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Can we trust our own experience of the world? How does our experience fit into a wider narrative? I look at how experience, memory and evidence become more problematic than we might imagine, through Joan Scott's influential essay, the Evidence of Experience, and Alan Megill's Historical Knowledge, Historical Error.
