1700-Tal

Sällskapet för 1700-talsstudier is a scholarly society dedicated to research and exchange on the eighteenth century, bringing together researchers and others interested in the period. Its activities include an annual meeting and networking event featuring research presentations, as well as conferences, workshops, seminars, and calls for papers that encourage discussion across academic disciplines. The society shares news about events and opportunities, publishes the journal 1700-tal: Nordic Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, and provides information about membership, its board, and related organisations.

Its programme covers a broad range of topics, from literature, social and economic history, and political ideas to environmental humanities and cultural studies. Events explore subjects such as relations between town and country, Nordic nature, human rights in colonial and global contexts, and the wider place of the North in eighteenth-century history. The society welcomes contributions from established scholars and early-career researchers, including doctoral and master’s students, and promotes both Swedish and international collaboration
