HNR Online Seminar Series 2026

The HNR Online Seminar Series is a relaxed, community-oriented forum that complements HNR conferences by creating space for sustained conversation around ongoing research in historical network analysis.
Each seminar features a single extended presentation, followed by ample time for discussion, allowing speakers to develop ideas in more depth and engage openly with a broad audience. The seminars will take place online on the second Monday of each month, with topics spanning methodological, theoretical, and empirical work across periods and disciplines.

When available, we will upload seminar-related materials (such as recordings, slides, and datasets) on this page. Click on a seminar title in the calendar to access the corresponding handouts.
