Spotlight

Meet the Editorial Team !

Since the redesign of the site, and well before, several people have worked behind the scenes to provide Earlymodernfrance.org with the information you receive in the bi-weekly newsletter: new publications, calls for papers, conferences, job announcements, spotlights, and much more. This spotlight is an opportunity to introduce the members of the editorial team who have agreed to appear here. We would like to thank the entire team, including those who preferred not to be presented in this spotlight: there would be no EarlyModernFrance.org without them.

No Sessions for MLA Toronto — Call for Delegate Assembly and Forum Executive Committee Members

Dear colleagues,

As current members of the MLA French 17th-Century Forum Executive Committee, we write to explain why we have not yet circulated, and do not plan to circulate, CFPs the 2026 Toronto Conference. Instead, we are outlining our response to the MLA Executive Council’s recent actions.

We join our voices to oppose the MLA Executive Council’s refusal in January 2025 to allow for an open debate of MLA Resolution 2025-1 calling for the endorsement of the 2005 Palestinian BDS Call.
