C18
18th Century Interdisciplinary Discussion
Founded in early 1990, C18-L is an international, interdisciplinary forum for discussing all aspects of 18th-century studies — that is, the "long 18th century," which extends roughly from 1660 to 1830.
C18-L is a virtual forum that works by circulating posted messages via e-mail to all subscribers. The primary language of C18-L is English, but we welcome correspondence in other languages as well. Our bibliographical database, Selected Readings, is multilingual.
C18-L subscribers can expect to receive frequent bulletins of professional interest (notices of conferences, grants, fellowships, calls for papers, etc.), and are welcome to post or forward such bulletins. Subscribers who send queries (asking for help with identification of quotations, recommendations for reading, research support, &c.) report they have received answers within 24 hours, and sometimes even within minutes. We also enjoy debates on a wide variety of topics, so that the tone of the discussion is something like a particularly stimulating coffeeroom discussion or seminar. We are usually able to avoid the rancor that afflicts other internet discussion groups subscription form and archive
