DESCRIPTION:The Oxford Centre for Global and Imperial History is thrilled 
 to announce our Trinity Term Event for 2026! \n\nWe are delighted to have 
 Professor Dame Linda Colley joining us on Friday 5 June 2026 to deliver a 
 keynote lecture on 'Edward Gibbon\, Roman Empire\, and Imagining De-Coloni
 zation'.\n\nBetween 1776\, the year of the Declaration of Independence\, a
 nd 1788\, the year before the French Revolution\, Edward Gibbon published 
 his multi-volume History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Util
 ized from the outset by political activists and journalists\, the work cir
 culated in multiple formats and was progressively translated into multiple
  Western and non-Western languages. Linda Colley analyzes how a book seemi
 ngly to do only with ancient empire\, came to be read\, cited and studied 
 by individuals critical in different ways of forms of empire \nin the mode
 rn world.
