James Chandler (University of Chicago), Jonathan Lamb (Vanderbilt University), Nicholas Thomas (Director of the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, Cambridge University)

Description

This conference explores the fluid and unfamiliar contours of predisciplinarity/adisciplinarity in an expansive Romantic Century, 1750-1850. We envision this conference as an opportunity to defamiliarize foundational moments, master narratives, and key figures of the Romantic century, by opening them up to predisciplinary and eccentric objects, encounters, and texts.
