This event helps historians to negotiate that difficult second project.About this EventSecond Projects13 January 2026, 14:30-17:00pm, in-person only;Wolfson NB01, Institute of Historical Research, London.What comes after the PhD or the first book project? Like bands struggling to craft that difficult second album, many historians find it challenging to get a second project off the ground – whether that means a new area of research, funding applications, a second monograph, or all three. We all know about the pressures within higher education that make this intellectual labour so hard, but that always doesn’t stop us blaming ourselves for not fulfilling an idealised vision of the ‘right’ career path.This in-person only event at the Institute of Historical Research is the first of a three-part series on Second Projects, with the second to be held at the University of Leeds (16 March, hosted by Sara Barker). Historians at different career stages, from those currently in the thick of second project chaos to those able to reflect with the benefit of hindsight, will share their experiences and strategies for survival. As well as hearing about how others experienced this career stage, the event will provide opportunities for discussion and reflection that will be collected in a History UK toolkit that will be launched at the third event (online, May)Speakers: Hannah Charnock (University of Bristol), David Doddington (Cardiff University), Ria Kapoor (Queen Mary, University of London), and Claire Langhamer (Institute of Historical Research). Chair: Tracey Loughran (University of Essex).Registration is essential. Places at this event are strictly limited and must be booked by 12 December 2025. A waitlist will be in operation if places fill up. Please contact Tracey Loughran (t.loughran@essex.ac.uk) with any questions. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/second-projects-history-uk/100001975107195791 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, virtual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fsecond-projects-history-uk-tickets-1975107195791 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Institute of Historical Research (IHR), School of Advanced Study [Wolfson NB01] - **lat**: 51.5211322 - **long**: -0.1293625 - **full address**: Institute of Historical Research (IHR), School of Advanced Study [Wolfson NB01], Malet Street, London, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: History, University of Essex (https://allevents.in/org/history-university-of-essex/23020806) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/3ae200357fbe7decaad4a059f3f3e37bd03ff2e4ef13ad90df0cdeefefad723c-rimg-w1024-h757-dcc1aba3-gmir.jpg?v=1763800791 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/2e44b6533ca91d74f101b74d53b7cb092cb8c56f7de2d38520482ff925436657-rimg-w400-h400-dcf3f3f3-gmir.jpg?v=1763800791 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 13 Jan, 2026 at 02:30 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Institute of Historical Research (IHR), School of Advanced Study [Wolfson NB01], Malet Street, London, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** History, University of Essex - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** music, entertainment, virtual - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Second Projects (History UK) ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Second Projects (History UK)", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/3ae200357fbe7decaad4a059f3f3e37bd03ff2e4ef13ad90df0cdeefefad723c-rimg-w1024-h757-dcc1aba3-gmir.jpg?v=1763800791", "startDate": "2026-01-13", "endDate": "2026-01-13", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/second-projects-history-uk/100001975107195791", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Institute of Historical Research (IHR), School of Advanced Study [Wolfson NB01]", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Malet Street", "postalCode": "WC1E 7HU", "addressLocality": "London", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.5211322", "longitude": "-0.1293625" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "What happens after wrapping up your first book project?
