Professor Santanu Das has recorded a series of videos about his research with EXPeditions as part of their Philip Leverhulme Prize Collection which launches today.

EXPeditions is an open-access digital publishing platform bringing world-class researchers and academics to the public in ways that are engaging, accessible and intellectually rigorous. It has partnered with the Leverhulme Trust to launch the Philip Leverhulme Prize Collection, which showcases conversations with leading scholars from a wide range of disciplines, all former prize winners.

Professor Das, Senior Research Fellow and Professor of Modern Literature and Culture at All Souls College, University of Oxford, works on early 20th-century literature and culture. Much of his work has been on the relationship between war experience, histories of intimacy, and the colonial archive, and he is currently working on maritime cultures.

He shares his research in three videos on:

Rethinking history, war and empire

Touch and intimacy

Sea literature: from sail to steam
