Annual KCL CEMS Colloquium: Periodizing the Early/Modern

Date: 11 June 2026

Location: King's College London

Visit website →

This year’s colloquium is on ‘Periodizing the Early/Modern and organised by Dr. Hannah Crawforth, Dr. Sarah Lewis, Prof. Lucy Munro, and Dr. Hannah Murphy. The colloquium will take place on Thursday 11th June at King’s College London and will consist of a series of panels and a roundtable.

A provisional schedule is available here: https://kingsearlymodern.co.uk/events/cfp-periodizing-the-earlymodern-annual-cems-colloquium

Colloquium Theme

When does early modernity begin and end? How do we understand the relation between the early modern and the historical periods that precede and follow it? Is it important to how we construe of early modernity that it be thought of as a boundaried entity, complete in itself? Or might the early modern be less a historical period and more a mode of thought? Much has been written about periodization in relation to the early modern. The Medieval/Renaissance divide (or lack of divide) has been theorized by a range of scholars, most notably perhaps Margreta De Grazia. But this symposium will consider the question of periodizing the early modern in a more forward-looking way, situating this temporal and theoretical construct in relation to our own contemporary moment.

CfP: When does early modernity begin and end? How do we understand the relation between the early modern & the historical periods that precede and follow it? Is it important to how we construe of early modernity that it be thought of as a boundaried entity, complete in itself? Or might the early modern be less a historical period & more a mode of thought? Much has been written about periodization in relation to the early modern. The Medieval/Renaissance divide (or lack of divide) has been theorized by a range of scholars, most notably perhaps Margreta De Grazia. But this symposium will consider the question of periodizing the early modern in a more forward-looking way, situating this temporal and theoretical construct in relation to our own contemporary moment. Global and postcolonial approaches by Dipesh Chakrabarty, Carlos Garrido Castellano, David Scott, Sanjay Subrahmanyam & others have challenged the spatial & temporal period boundaries, demanding a rethinking of early modernity from a variety of points of view.

This symposium will likewise rethink the various positions from which early modernity is construed, aiming to engage scholars from a range of disciplines including contemporary literature & theory, post-colonial studies, history, music, and philosophy, law, medicine, classics & war studies. We will explore the differing ways in which early modernity is & has been periodized within these fields, as well as considering how these different disciplines understand the early modern engagement with (or rejection of) periodisation itself. We will also ask what role periodization has played in enabling the oppressive power structures founded in early modernity to persist into our own present, & what periodizing the early modern can mean for the deconstruction & dismantling of these systems.

We invite proposals for 20-minute talks on the topic of ‘Periodizing the Early/Modern.’ Submissions from early career scholars & graduate students are particularly welcomed
