New Generation Thinkers anointed by BBC

Young experts in everything from wartime France to the theme of the widow in British literature have been selected in this year’s cohort of New Generation Thinkers.

May 28, 2015

Launched in November 2010 at BBC Radio 3’s Free Thinking Festival of Ideas, the scheme selects early career academics who are passionate about communicating their research to a wider audience.

The 10 winners spend a year working?with Radio 3 presenters and producers to develop their ideas for broadcast.

They will all take part in Radio 3’s arts and ideas programme,?Free Thinking,?on successive editions from 28 May, and they will have the opportunity to make short programmes for BBC Arts Online.

New Generation Thinkers from previous years have gone on to become established broadcasters, producing major radio features on everything from the sari to the “Supernatural North”.

Hundreds of applicants put their names forward this time, for projects ranging from the history of tickling to the symbolism of power.

After a six-month selection process that included a series of day-long BBC workshops in Salford and London, the final 10 were chosen by a panel of BBC Radio 3 and BBC Arts producers, and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Their names were announced at the Hay Festival on 24 May.
