Participation in the Seminar consists of group discussion of pre-circulated papers, typically drafts of articles, book chapters, or dissertation chapters (with complete apparatus). Two of the papers are ordinarily by emerging scholars (including PhD students) and the other two are by established scholars. We allocate one hour per paper and presenters should anticipate substantial, and substantive, feedback.

The Renaissance Society of America (RSA)

After delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are delighted to at last convene on the West Coast of North America in the "City by the Bay." Because of the rescheduling, please note that this conference will take place on an unusually early weekend for us, February 19–21, 2026. All sessions will be held in the hotel, just two blocks from Union Square and within walking distance of the city's acclaimed Chinatown. San Francisco's notable cultural institutions include the Legion of Honor, the de Young Museum, the Asian Art Museum, and the libraries and museums at Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley. Other attractions and historical sites include Mission San Francisco de Asís, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, the Victorian and Edwardian houses on "Postcard Row," Fisherman's Wharf, and the city's famed cable cars.
