How does the early modern matter in public history? Questions of periodization are nothing new in early modern scholarship, but how does this academic concern meet broader understandings the past? Bringing together and celebrating important contributions to early modern history from the public sphere, this roundtable features three scholars who have recently written for trade audiences, or have otherwise engaged in public history, to consider the challenges (and possibilities) of representing the early modern for a general audience.
