Eighteenth-Century Research Seminars, University of Edinburgh
The Eighteenth-Century Research Seminar (ECRS) series
invites proposals for twenty-minute papers from postgraduate and
early-career researchers addressing any aspect of eighteenth-century
history, culture, literature, education, art, music, geography,
religion, science, and philosophy. The seminar series seeks to provide a
regular inter-disciplinary forum for postgraduate and early-career
researchers working on the eighteenth century to meet and discuss their
research.
ECRS
will take place at the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities
(IASH) in Edinburgh on a fortnightly basis from January to April 2017.
Each seminar will consist of two papers, one from a University of
Edinburgh-based researcher and one from a researcher based in another
higher education institution, followed by a drinks reception.
Non-University of Edinburgh speakers’ travel expenses will be reimbursed
up to £100.
Abstracts
of up to 300 words along with a brief biography and institutional
affiliation should be submitted in the body of an email to:edinburgh18thcentury@gmail.com
The closing date for submissions is Monday 21 November 2016.
