Recovering Europe’s Parliamentary Culture, 1500-1700: Concepts, Methods, Approaches

We are co-organising a major international conference on early modern parliamentary culture this June and have bursaries available for graduate students. Would you be kind enough to circulate this to your students and colleagues please? 

 

The conference is entitled ‘Recovering Europe’s Parliamentary Culture, 1500-1700: Concepts, Methods, Approaches’. It is jointly organised by Oxford University, Jagiellonian University (Krakow, Poland), the British History of Parliament project, and ourselves, the Europaeum. It will feature prominent speakers including Alan Cromartie (University of Reading), Norman Jones (Utah State University), Paulina Kewes (Jesus College, Oxford), Fabien Montcher (Saint Louis University, Missouri), Dorota Pietrzyk-Reeves (Jagiellonian University, Krakow), Uladzimir Padalinski (Belarusian State University), and Paul Seaward (History of Parliament Trust, London). It will be held at Jagiellonian University on 22-24 June 2022. 

 

As Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München is a member of the Europaeum we are delighted to let you know that your postgraduate students are eligible to apply for a fully funded place. These places are available on a competitive basis and are only open to postgraduate students at universities that are members of the Europaeum. Applicants may be on master’s or doctoral tracks, research or taught. Researchers from across Europe are invited to attend, but our bursaries are only available to those at the 18 Europaeum member universities. 

 

Further details are available on our website: https://europaeum.org/conference-on-parliamentary-culture-22-24-june-2022-krakow/ . The deadline for applications is 15 March. Please note that those wishing to apply for a bursary must additionally submit a basic application form together with a two-page CV and the name of a referee. Bursaries are awarded on a competitive basis according to merit.
