No. 1 (2011): Summer 2011: The 20th Century
Welcome to the first issue of the University of Sussex Undergraduate History Journal. We aim to showcase the very best of the creative and vibrant history written by Sussex students across multidisciplinary subjects, and in doing so hope to inspire both debate and reflection. This journal gives students a chance to receive recognition for the hard work that goes into writing their essays, and we are proud to be able to release them into the academic world. In turn, the journal allows wider academia an insight into the fresh and innovative ideas blossoming from undergraduate talent.
Edited by George Bodie, Francesca Dennis, Elizabeth Hardwell, and Julia Kompe.
