The essays in volume 49 of Studies in Eighteenth-Century Culture
feature equal attention to multifarious aspects of
eighteenth-century culture and archives and to the theories,
pedagogies, and media that illuminate them. The place of
eighteenth-century studies in the university is a particular focus
of this volume. The Caribbean, Ireland, North America, Britain,
France, and Poland anchor the range of essays. Featuring the
President's Lecture and the Clifford Lecture, the first section
addresses issues of race, empire, slavery, and colonial rule in the
Caribbean, Americas, and Ireland. It also attends to recently
created archives of slaves' music and plantation layout and the
anti-racist methodologies scholars employ for researching and
teaching them. With a strong visual component, the second section
highlights the material culture of transportation on the ground and
in the air. It also details the business of manufactures and elite
collections in civil and court societies of England, France, and
Poland. The final section features current trends in theory that
illuminate new aspects of eighteenth-century studies. What does a
postcritical eighteenth century look like? How does a study of
multiple genres remake Irish studies? What is the role of
eighteenth-century studies in today's Humanities?
