There he became fluent in Russian and studied Soviet historical scholarship, particularly that relating to Britain.[3] After returning to England in 1936, Hill accepted a teaching position as an assistant lecturer at the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire. At around this time, Hill started to publish his articles and reviews about 17th-century English history. Hill returned to Oxford University after the war to continue his academic work.
