SOCIETES SAVANTES / LEARNED SOCIETIES
The International Society For Intellectual History aims to bring together scholars in intellectual history from all countries and all disciplines. ISIH was founded in 1994 by an international group of scholars, and a steering committee has been formed, consisting of Constance Blackwell (Foundation for Intellectual History), Donald R. Kelley (Rutgers U.), Ulrich Johannes Schneider (U. Leipzig), Wilhelm Schmitt-Biggemann (Freie U., Berlin), Edoardo Tortarolo (U. of Torino), Françoise Wacquet (CNRS, Paris), and Charles Webster (All Souls College, Oxford).
The ISIH proposes to organize conferences and to publish a newsletter in order to facilitate and to extend contacts among scholars with interdisciplinary interests. It will welcome other projects and act in general as a network of communication and exchange concerning questions arising in and across the history of various humanistic and scientific disciplines, with respect to national, cultural, and gender identities. All ISIH members will receive a newsletter which will appear at least once a year to provide information about conferences and activities of the society's members. The ISIH will organize a conference at least every four years. The first conference will be the United States in 1997 ("The Idea of Tradition"), and the second will take place in Berlin in 1998 ("The History of Endings"). Future topics may include "The Republic of Letters" and "Intellectual Quarrels." Among other projects, the ISIH sponsors a "Dictionary of Intellectual Historians," containing essays on major twentieth-century scholars who are of contemporary importance, and a series of reprints of early modern who have contributed to intellectual history.
Dues for membership and the Newsletter are $20 (students $10) or 15 pounds sterling (students 8 pounds). Anyone interested in becoming a member of ISIH should write to:

COLLOQUES / CONFERENCES
«Le temps et ses représentations au XVIIIe siècle»
Canadian Society for XVIIIth Century Studies / Société canadienne d'étude du dix-huitième siècle
The University of Western Ontario
16-19 octobre 1997
Vous pouvez: 1. proposer simplement un sujet de communication de votre choix relevant de la problématique du congrès; 2. indiquer votre souhait, après contact avec l'organisateur de la séance, de participer à telle ou telle séance déjà proposée; 3. contacter des collègues et proposer une nouvelle séance.
La réflexion que nous proposons ici pourra revêtir plusieurs formes:
1. Épistémologie du temps au XVIIIe siècle
Comment la science du XVIIIe siècle aborde-t-elle la question
du temps? Quels sont les instruments à sa disposition, quelles sont
les théories existantes? Dans quelle mesure et selon quelles modalités
les théories épistémologiques du XVIIIe siècle
font-elles retour sur le temps? Quelle place les «nouvelles cosmologies»,
la géologie naissante, la réflexion émergente sur
l'échelle des êtres, confèrent-elles au temps?
2. Représentations du temps
Il s'agira ici, non pas d'inférer un certain mécanisme
entre l'épistémologique et l'esthétique, mais d'en
penser plutôt la co-occurrence et la double action réciproque.
En d'autres termes, comment le temps est-il pensé/représenté
à l'intérieur de ces systèmes sémiotiques spécifiques
que sont la peinture, la sculpture, la musique, l'architecture, mais aussi
bien sûr la littérature?
Ainsi, que signifie penser/représenter le temps en peinture,
ou en sculpture? Que penser de la poétique des ruines, du néo-classicisme,
etc. à cet égard? Quels sont les topoï du temps (passage,
suspension, début, fin, etc.) en poésie et en littérature?
Comment le roman pense-t-il son déroulement actantiel, narratif?
Dans quelle mesure les diverses théories musicales qui s'affrontent
au XVIIIe siècle témoignent-elles de saisies différentes
(divergentes) du temps?
3. Le XVIIIe siècle et l'histoire
Premier volet: émergence de l'histoire comme science humaine.
L'histoire des idées s'accorde à voir l'émergence
de l'histoire (en tant que science humaine) au XVIIIe siècle. De
quelle(s) conception(s) du temps, de son passage, cette histoire naissante
témoigne-t-elle?
Deuxième volet: «fin de siècle». En quoi
la «fin de siècle» manifeste-t-elle le moment privilégié
d'une réflexion sur le temps (comment penser la fin, etc.?)? Quels
mouvements politiques, philosophiques, esthétiques, littéraires,
etc. voit-elle naître? Quels conséquences en tirer sur la
saisie du temps à l'oeuvre?
Troisième volet: le XVIIIe siècle et l'histoire. Réfléchir
aux temps du XVIIIe siècle, cela revient aussi à poser la
question de la périodisation du XVIIIe siècle. Le XVIIIe
siècle français, marqué par la Révolution française,
est ainsi bien différent du XVIIIe siècle anglais ou allemand.
Cette réflexion nous mènera également à considérer
la façon dont le XIXe ou le XXe siècle se représentent
le XVIIIe siècle (présupposés épistémologiques,
idéologiques, etc.). Il s'agira alors de nous interroger nous-mêmes
en tant que dix-huitiémistes sur nos propres présupposés.
Ainsi, une table ronde faisant le point des études sur le XVIIIe
siècle serait des plus appropriées.
4. Varia
Tout autre sujet lié à la problématique du temps
et de sa représentation au XVIIIe siècle qui n'aurait pas
été mentionné. Notez que les suggestions ici faites
sont une invitation à penser la problématique du temps dans
sa diversité: diversité géographique (Angleterre,
Espagne, Italie, France, etc.), périodique (début de siècle,
fin de siècle dans leurs rapports au temps), etc. Les études
comparées, les synthèses sont les bienvenues.
5. Communications libres
Conformément à la tradition de notre société,
les communications libres (c'est-à-dire les communications ne traitant
pas directement de la problématique ici développée)
sont également les bienvenues et trouveront place dans notre programme.
Les propositions de communication sont à expédier avant le 30 juin à:

"Representations of Time in the XVIIIth Century"
Canadian Society for XVIIIth Century Studies / Société canadienne d'étude du dix-huitième siècle
The University of Western Ontario
October 16-19, 1997
You can: 1. simply send a paper proposal on any topic related to the
conference theme; 2. indicate you wish to join a session already proposed
by a colleague; 3. try to contact colleagues and propose a session of your
choice.
Possible orientations:
1. Epistemology of Time in the XVIIIth Century
How does science in the XVIIIth century approach the question of time?
What instruments are at its disposal, what theories exist? To what extent
and according to what modalities do epistemological theories in the XVIIIth
century propose a reflection on time? What place is given to the notion
of time in the "new cosmologies," in the new science of geology, and in
the emerging reflexion on biological classification?
2. Representations of Time
The goal is not to infer a mechanical relationship between epistemology
and æsthetics, but rather to consider both of these in terms of a
co-occurrence or of a reciprocal influence. In other words, how is time
conceived of and represented within specific semiotic systems such as painting,
sculpture, music, architecture and, of course, literature? What does it
mean to think about and to represent time in painting and in sculpture?
What is the significance of the poetics of the ruin, of Neo-classicism,
in terms of an æsthetics of temporality? What topoi of time (its
passage, suspension, beginning, end) are expressed in poetry and literature?
How does the novel conceptualize its actantial and narrative progress?
To what extent are the diverse musical theories which confront each other
in the XVIIIth century a symptom of diverging conceptions of time?
3. Conceptions of History
Part one: the emergence of history as a social science. The history
of ideas situates the emergence of history as a social science during the
XVIIIth century. What conceptions of time and its passage appear in the
wake of the new science of history?
Part two: "fin de siècle." To what extent is the "fin de siècle"
a privileged moment for reflecting on time? What political, philosophical,
æsthetic, literary (etc.) movements are born and what are the conclusions
to be drawn about the understanding of time which informs them?
Part three: history and the XVIIIth century. A reflection on time in
the XVIIIth century also implies a study of its periodization. In this
sense, the XVIIIth century in France, marked by the French Revolution,
is very different from the XVIIIth century in England or Germany. This
examination will lead to a consideration of the way in which the XIXth
and XXth centuries represent the XVIIIth century (epistemological and ideological
presuppositions, etc.). An examination of our own presuppositions as "specialists"
of the XVIIIth century will be most pertinent to this reflection, and a
roundtable considering contemporary XVIIIth century studies would be most
appropriate.
4. Varia
Any other topic related to the problem of time and its representation
in the XVIIIth century.
Please note that the above suggestions are simply an invitation to
consider the problem of time in its diversity: geographic (England, Spain,
Italy France, etc.); periodic (beginning, end of the century, and their
relationship to temporality), etc. Comparative studies and syntheses are
welcome.

I would hope that papers on gardens in both France and England might be accomodated in this session. While my own current work on the most famous English landscape garden of the Eighteenth century--Stowe--lies behind this proposed session, I would also want to include papers on literary representations of gardens (in either poetry of prose). For example, how does the myth of Eden contribute to representations of an idealized past (or a world transcending time) and/or an idealized future? How are the inescapable passage of time, and the themes of change and growth treated in real and imaginary garden spaces? What about the way in which history is represented in "national" gardens? These are some of the issues that might be addressed in papers submitted to this sessions.

This panel would allow participants to explore simultaneously frequently probed but seldom interrelated issues: the "cognitive" encounter with time in a post-, reified-time environment; the experience of unavailable, long-term yet not permanent conditions activities such as sea voyages, exiles, exploratory journeys, and tourism on a grand scale or extended schedule; the representation of such time-extended events in literature and the arts; the relation between the consumption of time and consumption generally; incongruities of reading, travelling, and experiential-cognitive time; feats of durability and other of the term-limits of individual humans; ultra-long-term or preternaturally distant exploits such as space or time travel; and many other matters to that new range of Enlightenment experience, the long-term.

"East-West Seminar 1998» / «Séminaire Est-Ouest 1998"
The International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies (ISECS) invites applications from younger scholars in all fields of 18th century studies to attend an East-West seminar which will be held in Lyon, France from July 19 to July 25, 1998. The seminar is intended to promote intellectual exchange and to establish personal contacts between scholars from East European countries and the West. Twenty candidates will be chosen: 10 from the East and 10 from the West. Expenses will be paid. The discussions will take place in English and French.
Requirements:
1. Candidates must be under forty years old on January 1, 1998.
2. They must have a Ph.D or equivalent.
3. They must be able to speak French or English, preferably both.
4. They must submit an original paper of 20 pages by June 1, 1998.
Theme of the Seminar:
"Theoretical Debates and the Giving of an Æsthetic Form"
The philosophy of the Enlightenment did not pretend to propose a system, but to bring practical subjects into the opinion. To tractates and abstract lectures, it preferred more dense and at the same time more attractive forms. It often seeked refuge in the theatre of the novel. Fiction allowed it sometimes to outgrow contradictions which remained unsolvable in theory.This range of questions brings us to ask ourselves about the role of æsthetics in Enlightenment thought.
Applications should be sent before September 1, 1997 to the president of ISECS:

They should include the following information:
1. Nationality
2. Date of birth
3. Short curriculum vitæ with date of PhD and list of principal
publications
4. A brief description (250-500 words) of the proposed paper
5. One letter of recommendation
6. Full information on competence in foreign languages
La Société internationale d'etude du dix-huitième siècle invite les chercheurs de toutes disciplines se rapportant à l'étude du XVIIIe siècle à poser leur candidature pour le séminaire Est-Ouest qui aura lieu à Lyon (France) du 19 au 25 juillet 1998.Ce séminaire aura pour but principal de promouvoir les échanges intellectuels et d'établir des liens entre les chercheurs d'Europe centrale et orientale et ceux des pays de l'Ouest. Vingt candidats seront retenus: 10 pour les pays de l'Ouest et 10 pour l'Est. Les frais de voyage, d'hébergement, de restauration, etc. seront pris en charge. Les discussions se tiendront en anglais et en français.
Les candidats doivent:
1. être âgés de moins de 40 ans au 1er janvier 1998;
2. posséder un doctorat ou son équivalent;
3. parler le français ou l'anglais, sinon les deux;
4. soumettre avant le 1er juin 1998 un texte personnel d'environ 20
pages dactylographiées sur le thème du séminaire.
Le thème du séminaire de 1998 sera «Débats théoriques et mise en forme esthétique». La philosophie des Lumières ne prétend pas proposer un système, mais diffuser des thèmes pratiques dans l'opinion. Aux traités et aux exposés abstraits, elle préfère des formes à la fois plus souples et plus attrayantes. Elle a souvent eu recours au théâtre et au roman. La fiction lui a parfois permis de dépasser des contradictions qui restaient insolubles sur le plan théorique. Cet ensemble de questions amène à s'interroger sur la place de l'esthétique dans la pensée des Lumières.
Les dossiers de candidature doivent parvenir avant le 1er septembre 1997 au président de la SIEDHS:

2. date de naissance;
3. bref curriculum vitæ avec la date d'obtention du doctorat;
4. une description du texte en 250 à 500 mots;
5. une lettre de recommandation;
6. des informations complètes sur le niveau en langues étrangères.
«Dixième Congrès des Lumières» / "Tenth ISECS Congress"
Le dixième Congrès des Lumières, organisé pour la Société internationale d'étude du dix-huitième siècle par The Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society, aura lieu à University College Dublin (UCD) du 25 au 31 juillet 1999. Le président du comité d'organisation du congrès est Andrew Carpenter.
Les activités intellectuelles et sociales du congrès se dérouleront sur le campus de UCD, situé à 5 km du centre-ville. Bien desservi par les transports en commun, le campus est facilement accessible de l'aéroport de Dublin. Trinity College Dublin, Marsh's Library, Dublin Castle et Newman House sont parmi les autres centres retenus pour les activités du congrès.
UCD, qui est la plus grande université d'Irlande, est un endroit idéal pour ce congrès. Les résidences universitaires, situées sur le campus, se trouvent à quelques pas des bâtiments où se dérouleront les séances de travail. Cet ensemble résidentiel est nouveau, d'une qualité supérieure et d'un tarif très modéré. Six cent chambres ont été réservées pour les congressistes; les organisateurs recevront les réservations à partir du 1er janvier 1998. Les restaurants universitaires proposent une bonne cuisine à des prix raisonnables. Le campus est doté de trois bars ainsi que d'un centre sportif moderne. Un hôtel trois étoiles est situé près du campus, de même que des pensions et des restaurants. L'agglomération dublinoise possède un équipement touristique et hôtelier important incluant des hôtels de luxe. Les organisateurs du congrès se chargeront de toutes les réservations.
The Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society souhaite la bienvenue aux membres de toutes les sociétés affiliées à la SIEDHS. Le congrès sera pluridisciplinaire; la révolution et la marginalité seront parmi les thèmes généraux abordés. Les deux langues officielles du congrès seront l'anglais et le français, quoique la société irlandaise compte organiser aussi quelques séances en langue irlandaise. Deux types de séance sont proposés: des séances spéciales consacrées à des sujets, thèmes ou personnalités (ex.: Jonathan Swift; L'influence de la Révolution française; Scotland in the 18th c.; Exploration and Discovery in the 18th c.; L'histoire du livre en Irlande au XVIIIe siècle; Women Writers in 18th-c. Boston; Literary Theory and 18th-c. Studies; La poésie française du XVIIIe siècle; David Hume; Popular Culture on the Margins of 18th-c. Europe; etc.); des séances plus générales. Nous espérons accueillir des communications dans tous les domaines d'étude du XVIIIe siècle.
Le prix provisoire d'inscription est de £IR95. Ce prix comprend toutes les activités du congrès, intellectuelles et sociales, les réceptions et buffets (y compris une réception d'État) et le transport par autocar au besoin. L'hébergement et le banquet de clôture (à Trinity College) sont en sus. Le mercredi, il y aura un choix d'excursions durant toute la journée, ces excursions étant en supplément. Un programme spécial pour la semaine entière sera organisé pour les personnes accompagnantes (visites culturelles, réceptions, etc.) au prix de £IR50. Il y aura aussi des subventions pour faciliter la participation de congressistes originaires des pays de l'Europe de l'Est et d'autres régions moins favorisées économiquement, ainsi que pour les étudiants.
Dublin, qui de toutes les capitales européennes possède le plus bel ensemble architectural du XVIIIe siècle, a de quoi intéresser et divertir les participants au congrès. La Société irlandaise souhaiterait cependant donner aussi à nos collègues l'occasion de découvrir, ou redécouvrir, l'Irlande tout entière. Il est donc envisagé de proposer en dehors du programme principal un choix de périples irlandais d'une durée de trois ou quatre jours avant et après le congrès, dont la liste sera donnée en 1998.

The tenth ISECS Congress on the Enlightenment will take place July 25-31, 1999 at University College Dublin (UCD). The hosts will be the Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society and the congress organiser is Andrew Carpenter.
The academic and social activities of the congress will last from Sunday evening July 25 until Saturday evening July 31. The main venue will be the 360 acre campus of UCD, three miles from Dublin city centre, within easy reach of the airport and served by excellent public transport. Other venues for academic and social activities include Trinity College Dublin, Marsh's Library, Dublin Castle and Newman House.
UCD is the largest university in Ireland and an ideal location for the congress. The university residences-a new development of high-quality apartments-are adjacent to the academic buildings. The price of accommodation in these residences is very reasonable and their quality is very high. Six hundred places have been reserved for the ISECS congress and bookings will be taken by the congress office from 1 January 1998. The UCD restaurants provide good food at reasonable prices. There are also three bars on the campus as well as a modern sports complex. A three-star hotel is adjacent to the campus and guest houses and restaurants are also close by. In the greater Dublin area, accommodation of all types, up to de-luxe standard, is available, and the congress organisers will make bookings for those who prefer to stay in hotels or guest houses.
The Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society extends a warm invitation to all members of societies affiliated with ISECS to come to the Dublin congress. The congress will be multi-disciplinary and its main themes will include millenarianism, revolution and life "at the margins." The official languages will be English and French although the Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society will also be holding some sessions in the Irish language. Academic sessions will be organised in two ways: some will address particular subjects, themes, or individuals (e.g.: Jonathan Swift; L'influence de la Révolution française; Scotland in the 18th c.; Exploration and Discovery in the 18th c.; L'histoire du livre en Irlande au XVIIIe siècle; Women Writers in 18th-c. Boston; Literary Theory and 18th-c. Studies; La poésie française du XVIIIe siècle; David Hume; Popular Culture on the Margins of 18th-c. Europe; etc.), while others will address more general topics. We hope that papers in almost every field of eighteenth-century scholarship will be given at the congress.
The congress registration fee (provisional) is IR£95 to include all academic events, receptions/buffets (including a State reception), tea and coffee, and local transport as necessary. The registration fee does not include either accommodation or the Congress Dinner (to be held in the Dining Hall of Trinity College). On Wednesday July 28, there will be a choice of optional excursions to places of interest near Dublin. A special programme for "accompanying persons" will be arranged at a fee of IR£50 to include entrance to all receptions and social events, and some cultural visits. Bursaries for scholars from Eastern Europe and the developing world will be available, as will scholarships for students.
Although Dublin, as Europe's finest eighteenth-century capital, has more than enough to delight and interest all those attending the congress, the Eighteenth-Century Ireland Society sees the congress as an opportunity for delegates to enjoy the rest of Ireland as well. In addition to the events scheduled as part of the main congress therefore, we propose a selection of optional (extra-cost) three- and four-day tours of Ireland before and after the congress. Details of these will be circulated in 1998.

«Les folies romanesques»
Université de Paris III
Décembre 1997
Ce colloque est organisé par le Centre de recherches esthétiques des Lumières - Littérature et arts visuels (CERLAV 18), groupe de recherche dix-huitiémiste de la Sorbonne nouvelle - Paris III (responsables: René Démoris et Henri Lafon). Son intitulé place ce colloque sous le patronage de Marivaux dont les romans de jeunesse peuvent servir de point de départ à une réflexion plus générale sur les manifestations de la folie dans la fiction de l'époque. On se proposera d'étudier les manifestations de la folie sur le plan de l'énoncé comme sur celui de l'énonciation, sans exclure les théorisations éclairant le phénomène.
Quelques pôles susceptibles d'articuler la réflexion: le don quichottisme; les cas pathologiques; les effets d'étrangeté produits par la narration (l'énonciateur ou l'auteur serait-il fou?); la qualification et la réception de la folie dans les textes eux-mêmes. Cette liste n'est pas exhaustive.

12th Annual DeBartolo Conference
University of South Florida

Papers are invited on any aspect of dissent, heterodoxy and resistance in the long eighteenth century.

The theme embraces the quest for the forbidden in the arts, in politics, in science, in religion, in sex, in ideas and behavior, and any other area. Candidates for treatment might include schismatics, drug-users, libertines or radicals of every description.

8-10 janvier 1998
Le retour de l'exilé est un événement paradoxal en ce sens que celui qui revient chez lui est souvent devenu un étranger, étranger parce que le pays en son absence a changé, parce que lui-même a changé. Être hôte, voire être otage en son propre pays, est une expérience qui peut être dramatique.

"Cities under Siege. Besieged Populations and the Construction of
Historical Memory"
Montalcino, Province of Siena, Italy
July 7-10, 1999
The siege of cities has been a recurrent situation throughout modern and contemporary history right down to our time. The feature common to all siege situations is that a civilian population-or one that does not usually fight wars-gets involved in military operations between opposing sides. In fact, a siege is a wartime situation in which such sections of the population as women, children and old people find themselves on the front line, suffering from the actual fighting and not infrequently taking part in it. The duration of a siege-which may vary from a few days to several years-cannot fail to influence, to some extent, the social attitudes of the population concerned, as general conditions, for instance health standards and food supplies, are affected. Moreover, if the siege proves to be a protracted one, significant changes in the economy and demography may occur as well. Whatever the case, a siege leaves a deep imprint in historical memory, and often in the collective social memory of the inhabitants of the besieged town, but its after-effects do not stop there. The aim on the Symposium is to study the characteristics of a siege situation from different angles: a comparative approach will provide a wider background.
Five panels are proposed: Getting ready to face a siege; The siege as experienced by the besiegers; The besieged; After the siege; Memories, rites and myths connected by siege situations.
All those themes will be studied in a pluridisciplinary way, an approach we think is particularly profitable. Our Conference therefore should be of special interest, not only to scholars in different fields of history--such as social history, the history of mentalities, urban history, art history, historical demography--but also to experts in architecture, military engineering; medical statistics, epidemiology and the history of medicine, urban sociology, demography, historical and social anthropology, psychology.
English, Italian and French will be accepted.

"Thinking through History"
British Society for the History of Philosophy
School of Philosophy
University of Leeds
March 31-April 2, 1998
This conference will address some of the philosophical issues that arise concerning the interrelationships between philosophy and history. More specifically, as reflected in the meanings of the title, the aim of the conference is to explore, firstly, the ways that forms of thinking and writing have developed through time; secondly, how "history" is to be conceptualized and articulated; and thirdly, the question as to what "thinking historically" might mean, and its importance in the practices of philosophy, history and other disciplines.
Issues on which sessions will run include: The Historical Divide between Analytic and Continental Philosophy; Hermeneutics and Historicism; Historical Understanding in Analytic Philosophy; Narrative; Conceptions of History and Historiography.
Scholars (including postgraduates) working in any discipline with an interest in these themes, and who would like to offer a paper, are invited to contact the conference organizers enclosing a one-page abstract by July 31, 1997.

"History and Theory" (Graduate Students)
University of California, Irvine
November 15-16, 1997
Graduate students are invited to submit proposals for an interdisciplinary conference to be held in November 1997, that will examine connections between history and theory. The conference will take up issues and ideas raised by the many contemporary theories available to us--critical theory, cultural studies, feminism, queer theory, and post-colonial studies, among others--explaining their usefulness in the study of the past as practiced in various disciplinary settings in an effort to explore the ways various theories reshape historical inquiry, as well as the contexts in which these theories have developed. Rather than presentations of a theorist's work, explications of a particular theoretical question, or non-theoretical representations of a historical past, we encourage submissions which stress the relationship between history and theory either by historicizing the development of a theory or body of theories, or through the application of a theoretical model in the analysis of a historical problem.
One page abstracts (with no information identifying the submitter) and an accompanying cover letter should be submitted by July 15, 1997, to:

"1798 and its Implications"
Joint Conference of the North American Society for the Study of Romanticism
and
the British Association for Romantic Studies
St. Mary's University College, Strawberry Hill, England
July 6-10, 1998
1798 is the temporal locus for many diverse threads relevant to Romantic studies and it is hoped that the conference will reflect this diversity as well as reflect on its implications 200 years later. The year saw, among many other events, the Irish uprising, the Battle of the Nile and the XYZ Affair, the births of painter Eugene Delacroix and poet Adam Mickiewicz, the composition of Franz Joseph Haydn's The Creation, and the publication of such texts as William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Lyrical Ballads, Friedrich Schiller's Wallenstein, Edward Jenner's Inquiry Into the Causes and Effects of the Varioliæ Vaccinæ, and the final volume of Thomas Maurice's History of Hindostan, as well as new periodicals, including The Philosophical Magazine and Athenæum. The conference topic asks scholars to discuss the impact of this eventful period and its resonances in later generations from a wide range of disciplinary and national perspectives.
The conference committee invites proposals for 20-minute papers. Proposals should be 400-500 words in length and should be submitted by November 15, 1997.

"Workshop on the History of the Book and of Reading Practices"
6th Conference of the International Society for the Study of European
Ideas
Haifa University, Israel
August 16 -21, 1998
Encouraged by the success of this venture at the last ISSEI meeting in Utrecht, I am organising another workshop on the History of the Book and the History of Reading at this large, multi-disciplinary conference. I would now like to invite proposals for papers. I am especially (but not exclusively) interested in including in our discussions papers dealing with the history of the reading experience, and with Europe in the 19th century.
I hope as always that our panel will reflect the full scope of "l'histoire du livre" as it has developed to the present. Papers may treat the history of publishing and printing. They may also reflect recent research on the dissemination of literature, including for example the history of book clubs, lending libraries and retail bookselling. At the same time, we should have an opportunity to focus on the reader and on the reception of texts. One approach to this is to analyse the transformations of a particular text and its accompanying illustrations; another may be to assess the reading responses of one individual reader, or of a community of readers. I encourage a variety of approaches, to show the range of possibilities open to the historian of European print culture.
Papers will be presented, rather than read, and to make this possible I will distribute them to participants in advance. Participants will probably have between 15 and 20 minutes to introduce their papers, depending on how much time we are allotted. The vast majority of proceedings in ISSEI conference are in English, but at this workshop, contributions in either French or English are welcome.
An abstract of about 200 words should reach me by October 1, 1997.

"The Meaning of Place" (Philosophy and Geography, vol. 3)
This volume will collect papers that investigate normative questions about the definitions, uses, management, æsthetics and meaning of place. Articles may be theoretical or empirical, and may view the problem from various scholarly perspectives, including historical or cross-cultureal comparison, and/or be ground in moral, political or legal philosophy. Because the audience for this volume is multidisciplinary, authors are strongly encouraged to write in a style that is generally accessible. This does not necessarily mean that the material must be simplified, but that extra care must be taken to avoid jargon, to situate questions in a wider academic context, and to be clear about the purpose of the stated inquiry.
Deadline: September 15, 1997.

Montesquieu
To celebrate the 250th anniversary of De l'esprit des lois, David Carrithers (Political Science, U. of Tennessee at Cattanooga) and Patrick Coleman (French, UCLA) are planning a book of essays on Montesquieu's achievement and legacy. If you would like to contribute a chapter to this volume, we welcome your proposals. We are particularly interested in essays that relate Montesquieu to other major thinkers (e.g. Tocqueville) and to broad issues of contemporary concern (e.g. reconciling diversity with normative values). Please direct your inquiries to either of the editors at the e-mail addresses below.

Interrogating Constructions of Corpulence and Fat
The editors, Kathleen LeBesco and Jana Evans Braziel, seek submissions that explore and interrogate the constructions of fatness surrounding these questions or related others: how do media representations of fat people erase and asexualize them? How do weight (gain and loss), body size in relation to health, food consumption, and eating disorders comprise the normative discourses surrounding issues of fatness? How are these discourses deployed in order to contain the fat body?
Exploring this terrain, the editors seek interdisciplinary approaches
to interrogations of the constructs corpulence and fat (in media, cinema,
literature, art, life) that will call into question the dominant theoretical
framing of fatness i.e., ætiological, pathological and critical-psychological
methods of exploring a medicalized conception of obesity.
By recognizing corpulence as a medical or social problem, traditional
studies have failed to appreciate the ways in which constructions of corpulence
are historically, politically, culturally, and economically created. This
anthology also hopes to forward new trajectories for research on corpulence:
i.e., how do fat people understand and conceptualize their corporeal experiences?
How are fat people (in literature, art, television or film) exposing their
bodies, their sexuality and their desire? How do auto-definitions of corpulence
by fat people resist the normative delimitations of social representation?
The editors will consider essays from other perspectives, though our bias
will be toward analyses of the politics and power of corpulence.
Deadline for Submission of Abstracts: May 30, 1997.

Critical Survey
The UK-based journal Critical Survey is now entering its eighth year. Previously the journal operated on a rolling themed issue format but, as of this year, the format will change. The three annual issues of the journal will now consist of: a modern issue; an early modern issue; and an eclectic or guest edited issue. The editor for the early modern issue will be Andrew Murphy and submissions should be sent to him at the address below.
Submissions should be in the region of 5,000 to 7,000 words in length, though shorter pieces, and exceptionally strong longer pieces, will also be considered. Book reviews and reviews of electronic products (such as electronic editions) are also welcome. In general, reviews should run to about 1,000 words in length. Articles on all aspects of early modern literature and culture will be considered, though preference will generally be given to work which indicates a clear familiarity with contemporary theoretical and critical issues. It is hoped that at least one article devoted to contemporary debates in editorial and textual theory will be included in each early modern issue. All articles submitted will be refereed.

"Feminisms and Internationalism" (Gender & History)
Submissions are invited for a special issue of Gender & History to be published in 1998 on the theme of "Feminisms and Internationalism." The editors for the special issue seek essays which address the theme of the history of internationalism in feminist theory and praxis, possibly including the following topics: the ways in which "internationalism" has been conceived historically within feminism and women's movements; the nature of and historical shifts within "imperial" feminisms; changes in the meaning of feminist internationalism both preceding and following the end of most formal empires in the 20th century; the challenges to, and the reformulations of, internationalism within feminism by women of colour and by women from colonized or formerly colonized countries; the fragmentation of internationalism in response to a growing emphasis on local over global contexts of struggle as well as on a variety of different feminisms instead of a singular feminism; and the context for the reemergence of internationalism within feminisms and women's movements as a result of the new modes of globalization in the late 20th century.
Essays should be around 9,000 words in length. To submit a manuscript, send three copies plus an abstract and a separate title page with name, address and contact information. Deadline for submissions is December 15, 1997.

"British Ideas and Issues, 1660-1820: A Series of Reprinted Books and Pamphlets"
AMS Press's "British Ideas and Issues, 1660-1820" will offer reprints of books and pamphlets concerned with resonant trends in cultural history, social history, the history of science and technology, and, more broadly, the history of ideas. These large categories comprise more precise designations like economics, philosophy, and psychology, although readers of the series will presumably be intrigued by the period's tendency to conflate categories that we tend to distinguish from each other. Subseries of thematically related numbers will recreate the sort of intertextual exchange intrinsic to the medium of pamphlet-literature. Each number will include an introduction, brief annotations, and a bibliographical statement.
The series is intended for a readership, in various disciplines, of
advanced undergraduates, graduate students, professional scholars, and
interested laypersons. Its dates reflect current scholarly interest in
the "long eighteenth century" and announce the series's pertinence to readers
interested in the Restoration, the eighteenth century proper, the Romantic
and regency periods, and the manifold correspondences among them. Students
of continental thought will find the series valuable for its emphasis on
ideas central to European intellectual life as well as to British thought.
The first three titles, scheduled for publication in 1997, will be
part of an ongoing subseries entitled "Walpole's Friends and Foes." Alexander
Pettit will edit the first number, which will be in print by mid-April:
William Yonge's Sedition and Defamation Display'd and John, Lord
Hervey's important introduction to it (1731). Harry T. Dickinson will follow
with William Pulteney's A Proper Reply to a Late Scurrilous Libel; Intitled,
Sedition and Defamation Display'd (1731). Simon Varey will round up
the subseries with The Case of Opposition Stated, between the Craftsman
and the People (1732). All three pamphlets are key documents in the
battle between Sir Robert Walpole's apologists and his detractors and,
more generally, in the eighteenth-century debate about the liberty of the
press. All participate in the furor surrounding the government's harassment
of the Craftsman, the popular opposition weekly that was perennially
under attack in the Walpolite press but that become the object of a full-blown
legal assault only in the fall of 1730. Pulteney's response is additionally
of interest for recording its author's homophobic assault on Hervey, often
noted by students of gender and sexuality but rarely examined in detail
due to the rarity of the pamphlet.
Forthcoming subseries include "Above the Age of Reason: Miracles and Preternaturalities in an Empiricizing Empire" (Kevin Cope, consulting editor), "Resistance and Revolution: English, Irish, and Scottish Sermons, 1684-1692" (Tim Harris, consulting editor), and "Historiography at Mid-century" (Bertrand Goldgar, consulting editor). Occasional single numbers will concern diverse topics like the debate about rational and irrational souls in humans and animals. Subseries under consideration include nationalism and xenophobia, 1660-1760; gender and the monarchy, 1760-1820; and abolitionist rhetoric in England, 1780-1820. AMS Press expects to publish two to four numbers of "British Ideas and Issues" annually.
