Description
The Early Career Workshop Funds support one-day workshops on any aspect of British history during the ‘long’ seventeenth century. The scheme is run by the conveners of the British History in the Seventeenth Century seminar at the Institute of Historical Research (IHR), in partnership with the University of York’s Department of History and supported by the Conrad and Elizabeth Russell Fund.
Proposals addressing British political, religious and constitutional history between the Reformation and the civil wars are particularly welcome. Cultural and social, transnational and comparative, gendered and marginalised, and cross-disciplinary perspectives are strongly encouraged. The scheme welcomes collaboration between emerging and established scholars, with no prescribed workshop format.
