Kelly Summers

Assistant Professor of History, Department of Humanities, MacEwan University

Assistant Professor of History, Department of Humanities, MacEwan University I specialize in the history of France from the Old Regime through the Napoleonic era. My research on revolutionary migration examines issues that still resonate today: how individual liberties and national security conflict during times of political upheaval; how revolutions end; and how, in their aftermath, divided populations might be reconciled. I am currently completing a book entitled The Great Return: Émigrés, Refugees, and Revolution in France, 1789-1815, which will for the first time chart the complete life cycle of emigration, refuge, and re-migration during the French revolutionary era.
