Material and Visual Culture Seminar Series, 17th and 18th Centuries
Online, University of Edinburgh, 28 September — 7 December 2022

Each session we’ll hear from two speakers, sharing their research on, and approaches to, the study of 17th- and 18th-century material and visual culture. From reassessing how the work of female artists is read, to European visualisation of Latin America, and the exchange of objects, this year’s programme covers a broad range of topics. We aim to make a space in which these rich histories can be explored from varied disciplines to enhance our research practices. We’ll be meeting on Wednesdays, 5–6pm GMT, online using Zoom. See Eventbrite to register, view speaker abstracts, receive the joining link and reminders. Registration closes 40 minutes before seminar start time.
