INSTITUTIONAL CULTURE IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE: HISTORIES AND
ANTHROPOLOGIES
International Conference
King's College London
July 8-10, 1999

Employing new methods of anthropological and cultural history, this
conference seeks to go beyond the boundaries of individual
institutional histories to explore comparatively the rituals, propaganda,
and internal workings of a wide variety of early modern institutions.  It 
will allow scholars from widely differing fields and interests in
European and British history to compare their insights about institutional
culture in an important period of institutionalization.  The exciting
program,  detailed below, will culminate in a round table discussion by
John Brewer, Anthony Grafton, Olwen Hufton, and Keith Wrightson.
