Dr. Lucy Brown is a Teaching Associate in Modern British History and Level 2 Tutor at the University of Sheffield's School of History, Philosophy, and Digital Humanities. She holds BA, MA, and PhD degrees from the University of Sheffield. Her research focuses on the social and cultural history of 20th-century Britain, particularly the 1950s-1970s, examining shifts toward transparency in emotional relationships, marriage models, and the rise of a 'confessional' culture. She explores the influence of psychological theories like John Bowlby's attachment theory and humanistic psychology's 'encountering' concept. Her work also addresses the history of the welfare state and mental health in Britain.
Teaching responsibilities include undergraduate courses such as 'The Transformation of Britain, 1800 to the Present,' 'Media and Popular Culture in Twentieth-Century Britain,' and 'The Welfare State in Britain, 1900-2015,' as well as postgraduate courses like 'Stories of Activism, 1960 to the Present.'
Dr. Brown has supervised PhD students, including Maria Vasquez-Aguilar (researching Chilean refugees in the UK) and Hallam Roffrey (on obscenity politics in 1970s-1980s England). No scientific awards are explicitly listed, but her academic contributions lie in her research on emotional expression and cultural transformation.
