This blog series will document the use of Hansard in research on historical and socio-political topics. Posts in the series will describe any research that has made use of Hansard as a source of data and has in particular used the Hansard at Huddersfield site to engage with Hansard’s linguistic, historic and thematic patterns in any way. We hope this blog will give you an idea of the scope of research topics that Hansard may inform the study of.
