DESCRIPTION:For the last session of this year's PHaSS seminar series\, we 
 have an exciting joint session with two talks dedicated on Antarctica:\n\n
 "Heroic Networks: objects\, museums and Antarctic explorers" - Henrietta H
 ammant\nHenrietta's research considers the representation of explorers of 
 the ‘Heroic Age’ of Antarctic exploration (broadly the late 19th to ea
 rly 20th century) in museum collections. She is particularly interested in
  how certain figures from this time period\, including Sir Ernest Shacklet
 on and Captain Robert Falcon Scott\, have come to be thought of as ‘hero
 es’ thanks\, in part\, to the work of museum professionals. Expanding th
 e traditional understanding of a ‘hero’\, she aims to highlight a dive
 rse network of both human and non-human actors that were critical to these
  expeditions\, and their subsequent memorialisation in museums.\n\n"'They 
 will not come into contact with the restricted sections of the programme'.
  The Soviet Union and knowledge exchange in Antarctica" - Elias Angele
