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. To
keep this list during our time of self-isolation, we are announcing video conferences and
other online activity relevant to the Boston area. Please forward announcements of virtual
socials, web-meetings, online exhibits, and application deadlines for future conferences
in our region. If you’d like your event to be posted on the first list of the new academic
year, scheduled for Sept 1, please write before then. After that 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 zoomlinks directly, but we can list an
email contact for who write expressing a wish to attend. Alternatively we can circulate
registration information for events.
Tuesday, September 15, 4-6pm
Please save the date for our 2020 Fall Aperitivo, the opening event of the Early Modern
