Biography
Dr Gwyn McClelland is a Lecturer in the Department of Languages, Cultures and Linguistics within the School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences. An oral historian, he conducts research engaging with religious discourses in memory and history. Interested in emotion in testimonial narration, he has explored how trauma studies intersects with feminist theology. Gwyn’s previous project, which resulted in a monograph published in 2020, discussed how the atomic bombing of Nagasaki marginalised an already discriminated-against community, the Catholics. Interviewing nine Catholic survivors of the bombing, Gwyn observed how the survival of the atomic bombing was perceived alongside the memory of the ‘Hidden Christians’. The ‘Hidden Christian’ community included multiple ancestors of the survivors, returning to Catholicism in the late nineteenth century after two-hundred and fifty years of persecution by the shogunate. Gwyn is currently co-editing a book for a project in the area of Cultural Histories of Sense, tentatively entitled ‘Olfactory Cultures of Asia’. Other work includes a project on religious fundraising in history and another entitled ‘Loves and Loyalties in Imperial Japan’. Gwyn is currently preparing for new fieldwork in the boundaries of the Nagasaki region, which he intends to use in a comparative project in East Asia, most likely compared to Korea and China. Gwyn is an Associate at the Contemporary Histories Research Group at Deakin University, Melbourne and is accredited in Theology at Whitley College, University of Divinity, Melbourne.
