Greetings!
This list announces talks in the greater Boston area pertaining to the study of the early
modern period ca. 1350-1800, in any discipline and with any regional specialization. This
year we are announcing in person and online events and activities relevant to the Boston
area. Please forward announcements of events, including exhibits and application deadlines
for future conferences in our region. We’re planning a mailing roughly every two
weeks—please therefore send notices of events at least two weeks in advance. Please
forward announcements, in the format requested at the end of this message, and e-mail
addresses to: earlymod@fas.harvard.edu<mailto:earlymod@fas.harvard.edu>.
For security reasons the list will not disseminate zoom links directly, but we can list an
email contact to which to write for further details about attending. Alternatively, we can
circulate registration information for events. All times are EDT.
