The Centre for Hearth Tax Research
In association with The Centre for Metropolitan History &
Birkbeck, University of London
Will be hosting an international conference on Restoration London, 22-23 September 2010 at the Institute for Historical Research, London.
The aim of this conference will be to reassess life and living in later Stuart London, drawing on the unique array of sources for the period, such as parish records, taxation returns, and the recently collated data from the London and Middlesex 1666 hearth tax return. All those attending the conference as speakers will be given priority access to this data and hence will have the opportunity to link it to their own work.
Call for Papers
Proposals are welcomed from established and early-career academics for research papers of 40 minutes and from postgraduate students for papers of 20 minutes.
Papers on any aspect of life and living in restoration London are welcomed but the following themes are particularly encouraged:
London and its hinterlands, Crime, Employment, European and wider comparisons, Health, Housing and the built environment, Hearths in domestic and work contexts and
Religious observance
Proposals comprising an abstract of 400 words and any other enquiries should be sent to John Price (j.price@roehampton.ac.uk)
The closing date for proposals is 31st May 2010
