Over the next six weeks, six historians will deliver lectures on Writing New Zealand History in the twenty first century as part of the University of Auckland's Winter Lecture series.

The series kicks off on Tuesday with a talk by associate professor Caroline Daley - entitled Taking Off the Black Singlet.

In her lecture she'll argue that the black singlet - rural, masculine, and hard-wearing, the woollen equivalent of number eight fencing wire - has straight-jacketed the writing of our history. And that a new generation of historians is discovering that satin and sparkles were as much a part of our past as boiled wool and nightshirts made of sugar sacks.
