Autor

Elizabeth T. Hurren, is an international expert on histories of poverty and welfare. Over the last 25 years, she has rediscovered millions of stories about ordinary people's histories of the body, from the early modern period to the present-day. Hurren has published both chronologically and thematically from Leonardo da Vinci to the Human Genome. Her pioneering book, Hidden Histories of the Dead (2021), featured hidden histories of the dead that underpinned the expansion of research in the medical sciences from 1930 to 2000. In her work, Hurren has given voice to millions of 'nobodies' determined to be 'somebodies'.
