This year the CRRS is cooperating with graduate students from across the disciplines at the University of Toronto in order to develop a community centered on the exchange of ideas about the early modern period. Meetings will be held once monthly from 3:30-5:00PM in the Burwash Hall Senior Common Room at Victoria College. Each meeting consists of two 15-20 minute papers presented by graduate students or post-doctoral scholars from different disciplines followed by a discussion moderated by a graduate student or postdoc from a third discipline. The organizers hope that this structure will encourage conversations amongst a truly interdisciplinary audience. Faculty and members of the wider community are also welcome and encouraged to attend the talks. Please consider joining us.
