The Society for Early Modern French Studies brings together scholars and specialists with a particular interest in France in the early modern period, from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. It is interdisciplinary in scope, covering literature, history, art, music, history of ideas, theology, and philosophy.
Early Modern French Conference
Our 2024 conference will be held at the University of Exeter, on the theme of ‘Ways of Knowing’ / ‘Modes de savoir’ (24-26 June).
The Journal
The Society’s Journal is Early Modern French Studies, which has two issues a year.
Amy Wygant Bursaries
We have launched a programme of annual bursaries to support members’ research. These awards are known as the Amy Wygant Bursaries, in memory of our late colleague and Editor of the Society’s learned journal.
