Archives, Libraries, and the Academy

This panel event is the second in the 3-part series Invisible Influencers: Examining Absence in Popular Narratives

Inspired by the absence of Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint Georges from the musical and military history canons, this series examines presence and absence in popular historical narratives as well as how they are sustained or disrupted.

 

PART TWO

WORKSHOP: In the Archives: Researching and Learning with Primary Source Materials about New Orleans

This session is an introduction to archives for the novice user. It also provides a hands-on experience for attendees to engage with primary source materials, and to answer research questions related to holdings from the Hogan Archive of New Orleans Music and New Orleans Jazz, a unit of Tulane University Special Collections.
