Conference Title: Eighteenth Century Native Communities of New England in
the Context of Colonial Change.
Sponsor: The Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center, Mashantucket, CT
Location: The Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center, Mashantucket, CT
Date: September 20-21, 2002
Deadline for Title & Abstract: April 30, 2001
Generally speaking, Native communities are viewed as though the
events and processes of the eighteenth century affected only their
economic, social, and political institutions, without a comparable effort
to understand how colonial society was changed. In this conference we seek
to bring multiple perspectives and disciplines to bear on our understanding
of the effects that events and processes have had on colonial and Native
communities. We also seek to explore the inter-relationships among the
communities. Some possible topics include the impacts of climate and
demography, religious movements, colonial wars, trade, agriculture,
maritime, fishing, and the emergence of the factory system. This is merely
a suggested list, and we welcome other topics that fit within the intent of
the conference.
Accepted participants will be provided a modest stipend to help defray the
costs of travel and lodging. Persons interested in participating in the
conference should send a title and abstract no later than April 30, 2001 to:
