CFP - 15th International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies Congress on 'The Enlightenment' The British Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies (BSECS) is delighted to host the 15th International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies Congress (ISECS) at the University of Edinburgh in July 2019. While proposals for papers, panels, and roundtables on any topic relevant to the long eighteenth century are welcome, the Society particularly invites contributions that address the theme of ‘Enlightenment Identities’. The question of ‘identity’ was much disputed in the eighteenth century, in ways ranging from the local, regional, colonial, national, federal, imperial, to the global. Identities are complex. They are forged by factors ranging from the personal to wider political, military, religious, intellectual, techno-scientific, cultural, ethnic, social, sexual, economic, class/caste, geographical, and historical contexts. The idea of Enlightenment was itself much debated. Given these interlocking complexities, ‘Enlightenment Identities’ constitutes an important theme for an international gathering in the Enlightenment city of Edinburgh, whose eighteenth-century denizens, like Adam Smith, were at once Scottish, British, and ‘citizens of the world’. Call for Papers, Panels and Roundtables Proposals are invited for individual papers, preformed panels of three or four papers, and roundtables of between four and six participants. Proposals may be in English or French. The final deadline for submission of papers and panel proposals is Friday 1 February 2019. Submit a proposal Bursaries ISECS is delighted to offer bursaries for Edinburgh Congress participants to cover (partly or totally) the costs of travel, accommodation, and meals. Priority will be given to doctoral students, early career scholars, and scholars from countries with weak currencies. Applicants must be intending to give papers. Applications must be submitted to the email address on the official form, with a separate letter of recommendation from someone well known to the applicant. The deadline for submissions is 31 January 2019 GMT. Applications will be reviewed by a selection sub-committee. In early March, results will be announced to applicants, who have until 1 April 2019 to accept or decline.
