Early
Modern Workshop
Schedule
of Sessions
(2009-2010)
If you are interested in
presenting a paper, dissertation chapter, journal article or other scholarly
work in progress
at the Early Modern Workshop, please contact Christopher Fletcher at cfletcher@uchicago.edu
or Elisa Jones at elisajones@uchicago.edu
. Though
the Workshop is primarily composed of historians, we gladly welcome presenters
from outside of the History Department.
As a rule, the format of
the Workshop is for the presenter to precirculate his or her paper one week in
advance of the
session date, during which time typically participants read the paper. Participation is open to the public. At the
Workshop session itself (Monday evenings at 5 PM in Pick 319, except where
noted), participants ask questions of the author and offer constructive
feedback on the paper.
