Maryland Early American Seminar
In its third decade of existence, the Maryland Early American Seminar
provides scholars with an opportunity to share their research on any dimension
of pre-Columbian, colonial, early national, and Atlantic world history
and culture. The seminar meets 6-8 times each academic year to discuss
papers distributed ahead of time, and the papers, whether of graduate
students, faculty, or independent scholars, are usually works in progress.
The discussions are lively, and questions and suggestions about the work
are welcome and appreciated. Members come from throughout the mid-Atlantic
region, and the researchers who make their papers available about a month
in advance come from throughout the nation and abroad. We are currently
soliciting papers for the 2002-03 academic year. Anyone who is interested
in presenting a paper or joining the seminar as a discussant should contact
Dr. Nancy Struna, Department of
American Studies or Dr. Alison Olson (301-405-4297) and Dr.
Whitman Ridgway in the Department
of History.
