Taking as our starting point our location in Liverpool, Britain’s eighteenth-century boom town and hub of the transatlantic trade in goods and people, we have a particular interest in the international and global dimensions of the period, and also in material culture.
Eighteenth-Century Worlds (ECW) is an interdisciplinary research centre, which aims to promote research in the political, social, economic, intellectual, and cultural life of the ‘long’ eighteenth century (1650-1850).
Draw on the interdisciplinary expertise of staff in English, History, Classics and Archaeology and French and German Studies on the Eighteenth-Century Worlds pathway of our MA in History.
