Displacement, Transgression and Dissent
France, Great Britain and the American Colonies (c.1600-1800)
This young researchers' conference sets out to examine norms and transgessions in 17th- and 18th-century France, Great Britain and early America, in relation to issues such as knowledge and science, religious dissent and political radicalism, the ontological status of man, definitions of reason and forms of unreason, including melancholy and madness, new discourses of body and mind, including those that shaped concepts of sexual behaviour deemed abnormal or contrary to Nature, the emergence of a political sphere, the beginnings of a public sphere...The aim of the conference will be to explore how these and related issues were explored in literary and artistic forms, as for example in poetry, satirical pamphlets, travel writings and utopias, drama and theological or moral controversies.
