Getting Lost: An Intellectual Autobiography Beyond Historical Thinking

Highlighting intellectual influences ranging from Roger Simon, Peter Seixas and North American curriculum theory conferences, I trace my two decades articulating a rationale and pedagogy for historical thinking. I explore the increasingly compelling themes that have animated my work: subjectivity, desire, and futures eschewed in popular articulations of what it means ‘to do’ history education. Influenced by J. LéTourneau, I ask: How might we reimagine history education as something more educative than merely transmitting a nation-state’s grand narrative or appeals to shifty notions of historical ‘second order concepts’ from one presumed to know to one presumed to be lacking?
