Stephen Poleon: Preston Lancashire, A Banana Boat Stowaway Paradise?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cameron Fleming: Acquired for the cause of abolition? Wigan Museum\u2019s Egyptology collection and its contested memory<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Wigan, a town in the north-west of England evokes many images: Orwell\u2019s Road to Wigan pier, pies and working men\u2019s pubs. Egyptology is the last collection you expect to be faced with in the town\u2019s museum. From narratives explaining their \u2018gift\u2019 for ending slavery in Egypt to their contextualisation as the profits of colonialism, this talk explores their contested and multifaceted post-colonial legacy.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
