This blog charts major happenings in the world of early modern textual studies: publications, conferences, funding opportunities, and major research initiatives. The goal is to stimulate dialogue amongst scholars working in the traditionally distinct fields of Medieval, Renaissance, and eighteenth century studies, and to foster a broad awareness of the multiplicity of critical approaches being taken to the textual cultures of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, America, and beyond.
