Early Modern Cultural Studies is a peer-reviewed book series of Brepols Publishers that explores the complexities of the early modern world. Early modernity is broadly conceived as the period from around 1300 to 1700. With our international editorial board, we welcome monographs and edited volumes that shed new light on and adopt new approaches to the histories and cultural products of this period. The thematic scope allows works in this series to investigate trends and events in cultural, intellectual, social, political, and economic history which are indicative both of change and continuity with the past. The series thus covers issues ranging from (but not limited to) gender, identity, society, emotions, space, material culture, religion, and politics and their intersections. We accommodate books rich in illustrations and are particularly interested in studies in art and architectural history.
