We are very pleased that the Natalie Zemon Davis Memorial Lectures in 2026 will be given by Sherene Seikaly, Associate Professor of History at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Her lecture series is entitled Historical Accompaniment as Method. It will draw on clinical records, correspondence, reports, budgets, and diaries, using both speculation and microhistory to explore sovereignty, empire, and partition from the 1830s to the 1950s.
