This Could Be You

About the speaker
Sara is a Professor of Modern Languages at the University of Birmingham. Her research focuses on the ways in which individuals and societies remember and work through authoritarian pasts. A key aspect of that has been an interest in life stories and testimonies: the way that individuals give an account of themselves and their experiences and the different forms that can take.
