Explain the concept of public history

Answer»

!!here is ua ANSWER:It is in the history books written by academics in universities and it is in the events and exhibitions of art galleries, libraries, heritage consultancies and HISTORICAL associations. But history is also part of the way, as individuals and as groups, we make sense of who we are and where we come from. It is in the games our kids play and the ways we tell stories.But Public History is also a practice. It is a way of doing history for (and with) public AUDIENCES. This kind of public history is sometimes informed by the history done inside universities, but its aim is to engage with the broader community, through preserving our culture, providing services, and facilitating access to INFORMATION. This can be done in a variety of ways, from exhibitions and heritage plans to walking tours and podcasts. Public historians may work in heritage conservation, commissioned history, MUSEUMS, the media, education, radio, film, interactive multimedia and other areas as well as in universities. hope it helps..!!!!
