Description

In the 25 years since its foundation the Centre for Eighteenth Century Studies has come to be recognised as a leading centre in the English-speaking world for interdisciplinary research in the eighteenth century.

The Centre was founded in 1997. It has 21 permanent members of staff and some 30-40 affiliated PhD students, and runs a flourishing MA programme with a wide range of optional courses. 

Its research seminars, held four or five times a semester, attract visiting speakers from Europe and North America as well as from Britain, as do its frequent international conferences and one-day symposia.
