Keynote speaker
Dr Sarah Irving-Stonebraker, is Senior Lecturer in Modern European History, and teaches in the History and Political Thought major. She was awarded her PhD in History from Cambridge University (2007), where she was a Commonwealth Scholar at King’s College. She took her BA with First Class Honours and the University Medal from the University of Sydney in 2003.
Her first book was awarded The Royal Society of Literature and Jerwood Foundation Award for Non-fiction. Entitled Natural Science and the Origins of the British Empire (London: Routledge: 2008), the book investigates the way that England’s colonial empire became tied to the Protestant redemptive project of restoring humanity's original dominion over nature. Jonathan Goldstein, one of the judges of the Jerwood Award, called the book "a masterfully written history of the construction of the British Empire". In 2016, Routledge re-issued the book in paperback. https://www.routledge.com/Natural-Science-and-the-Origins-of-the-British-Empire/Irving/p/book/9781138665224
