Dear all
Hannah Philip writes:
Fairfax House has just launched a Call for Papers for its annual Georgian Studies Symposium coming up in October. Associated with the museum’s exhibitions programme, the 2015 two-day conference (Retail Realms: Shops, shoppers and
shopping in eighteenth-century Britain) will be focused around consumerism and consumption in the long eighteenth century.
The aim of Retail Realms: Shops, shoppers and shopping in eighteenth-century Britain is to bring together research and material from museum professionals as well as academics, collections specialists, independent scholars and those
with an interest in retail history or a passion for Georgian studies. I would very much like to make sure that this reaches museums professionals and those responsible for caring for social history collections.
With many thanks,
Hannah
