AHRC Grant Success for Warwick Project, Imperial Entanglements: Transoceanic Basque Networks in British and Spanish Colonialism, and their Legacy
Congratulations to Kirsty Hooper (SMLC-Hispanic Studies), who has been awarded £433,185 by the AHRC for a three-year project exploring the inter-imperial, transoceanic networks operated by two nineteenth-century Basque commercial families - the Larrinagas and the Zuluetas - between the port cities of Liverpool, London, Bilbao, Havana and Manila. The project has an important community dimension, tracing the resonances of these networks, the people who inhabited them, and the places they lived, worked and are remembered, across all five port cities today.
