Detailed Information/Report on Activities

Young scholars (those who are preparing or have submitted a doctoral dissertation on the history of early modern European thought, in particular, on French Enlightenment thought) from seven universities in five countries (France, Canada, Korea, Brazil, and Japan) will be brought together to hold regular joint international online seminars with a member of the universities concerned. The seminar will share the latest findings on the state of research through a series of reports by young scholars and will provide a basis for international research for future generations.
