"Early Modern Virginia: Reconsidering the Old Dominion"
Edited by Douglas Bradburn and John C. Coombs
Library of Virginia
Friday, November 18, 2011. 6:00 PM
Exploring a wide range of topics, "Early Modern Virginia: Reconsidering the Old
Dominion" is a collection of essays on 17th-century Virginia. The essays, the
first such collection in 25 years, touch on numerous aspects of the lived and
imagined experience of the early American world: from religion to government,
trade to imperialism, slavery to Native American society, architecture to the
sexual politics of the household. The book offers a fresh look at the early
religious, political, economic, social, and intellectual life of the colony.
Come to the Library of Virginia and join editors and historians John C. Coombs
and Douglas Bradburn in a fascinating panel discussion moderated by Brent
Tarter (founding editor of the "Dictionary of Virginia Biography" at the Library
of Virginia).
