Show me AI that can visit an archive, then sit in the searchroom and interpret 19th-century handwriting, and you might - almost - have a point. I'm seeing an awful lot of evidence that people just don't know what humanities scholars actually do.

Cover of Nick Hubble's Culture Wars in Britain: The Myth of Exceptionalism and the Reality of Division. This in the 'Society Now' series of Emerald Publications. Background red with pattern of black culture mask symbols - titles in black against white circle in middle of cover.

We are getting closer to the 13th May 2026 publication of my book Culture Wars in Britain. I explain how far from being a superficial recent import from the US, culture wars have played a central role in British life since at least the 1910 constitutional crisis. We need to take them seriously (1/3)
