| dc.description.abstract | In 1968 H.J.Dyos edited a seminal collection of essays entitled The Study of Urban History. 18 This collection stemmed from the first-ever conference of British urban historians which was held at Leicester University (where Dyos was Professor of Urban History) in 1966. Included among the essays were seven dubbed simply, ‘Discussion’. These were the written-up versions of questions and comments that followed the presentation of either single papers or groups of papers on topics such as methodological trends, sources for urban history, stages of urban development, the social structure of towns or defining or setting an agenda for the emerging subdiscipline. There is therefore a notable precedent within the field for this written summary of the presentations, questions and comments that accompanied the session on urban history at the centenary colloquium | |
