Publication Opportunity

There will be a guest-edited edition of Eighteenth-Century Life, publishing the most select of the contributions to our conference. There are a number of points we should like to make concerning this guest-issue. We will have 'right of first refusal' to papers from all participants, who must be ready to prepare scholarly, written, as well as orally-delivered papers.

The submission deadline for written articles will be Friday, December 19th, 2008; that is, three months after the conference. The guest-editors retain the right to refuse publication to any possible contribution.
