What an absolute powerhouse of a session! On 27th August, the BRAC University History Club had the absolute honor of hosting renowned Archaeologist and Jahangirnagar University professor, Dr. Swadhin Sen, for an eye-opening seminar that left the entire room buzzing!

​Speaking on the thought-provoking topic, "Memory is a Stranger, History is for Fools: Presentist Desires, Methodological Absenteeism, and the Illusion of Continuity in Early and Early Modern Bengal," Dr. Sen completely transformed how we look at historical narratives, memory, and our shared past. From intense deep-dives into Bengal’s complex history to a warm, inspiring sit-down session with our BUHC club members afterward, it was a day filled with incredible memories.

Huge thanks to Dr. Swadhin Sen for bringing his incredible insights to our campus, and a massive shoutout to everyone who packed the room and made the event unforgettable!

🏛️ A Scholar Who Reads Beyond the Ruins

Some scholars study the past. Professor Swadhin Sen, PhD, invites us to question how we come to know it. A distinguished archaeologist and faculty member of the Department of Archaeology, Jahangirnagar University, he brings an archaeological perspective to the memories and narratives through which Bengal’s past is understood.

Join us as Professor Sen looks beyond the familiar.🔍

BRAC University History Club (BUHC) invites you to an engaging seminar on:

📜 “Memory is a Stranger, History is for Fools: Presentist Desires, Methodological Absenteeism, and the Illusion of Continuity in Early and Early Modern Bengal”

What happens when the present rewrites the past? History is not simply what survives in memory—it is shaped by what we choose to question, interpret and carry forward. Join BRAC University History Club (BUHC) as we look beyond familiar narratives to explore memory & the illusion of continuity in Bengal’s past—and perhaps leave with a different way of seeing the history we thought we knew.
