DESCRIPTION:Program\nCosponsored by 91˿����Ƶ\, this symposium and 
 the\npublication to follow from it are funded by the interdisciplinary\npr
 oject on Making\nPublics: Media\, Markets\, and Association in Early Moder
 n\nEurope\, 1500-1700. Supported by a Major Collaborative Research\nInitia
 tive grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research\nCouncil of Ca
 nada\, this project examines the various forces that\nshaped the emergence
  and evolution of 'publics': open-membership\ngroups that coalesced around
  practices\, interests\, ideas\, values\,\nand forms of publication or per
 formance in the early modern\nperiod.\nAccounts of the cultural\, intellec
 tual\, social\, and spiritual\ntransformations of early modern Europe not 
 only expanded the\nhorizons of European thought but\, more essentially\, c
 alled into\nquestion the certainties of classical and religious teachings.
  This\nsymposium will examine the effects these various processes had upon
 \npublics in Europe and in the new domains of European expansion and\ninfl
 uence. How did racial\, ethnic and cultural differences impact\nupon tradi
 tional concerns\, modes of thought\, institutions\,\npractices or forms of
  association? Did “positionality\,” one’s\nphysical location\, affect the 
 publics found there? Were the roles\nof science and the arts the same in E
 uropean publics at home and\nabroad? And\, more generally\, how was the cr
 eation and evolution of\npublics informed by European discoveries in Afric
 a\, Asia\, America\,\nand elsewhere in the early modern period?\n
