Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, the annual BSECS Postgraduate and Early Career Researcher conference cannot go ahead as planned. However, we are still keen to provide a platform for postgraduates and early career researchers in eighteenth-century studies to get together and present their research. Therefore, we proudly present this new monthly digital seminar series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last Thursday of each month, 3-4PM. Currently the sessions are running until November, with a view to extend with a further CFP if successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sessions take place via Zoom and are aimed specifically at postgraduate and early career researchers. Registration details will be released here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n For any queries, please contact the postgraduate representatives via postgrad@bsecs.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Programme<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 30 July<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Matthew Lee, University of Aberdeen: Resistance, rebellion and the amelioration of slavery in Hector MacNeill\u2019s Memoirs of the Life and Travels of the Late Charles Macpherson Esq.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0Tom Little, University of York: \u201cquitting the public road\u201d: Affective Atmospheres in John Thelwall\u2019s The Peripatetic (1793)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 27 August<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Anthony Delaney, Newcastle University: Cotqueans: Queer Domesticity in Eighteenth-Century England<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hannah Weaver, University of Edinburgh: Illicit Space and Gender: Reassessing Urban Boundaries in Late Eighteenth-Century Edinburgh<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 24 September<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rebekah Andrew, University of Birmingham: \u2018O that my Grief were Thoroughly Weighed\u2019: Clarissa\u2019s \u2018Meditations\u2019 and Jeremy Taylor\u2019s Holy Living<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jeanette Holt, Kingston University: Marriage \u2013 Love or Money?
