Welcome to the Early Caribbean Society
Established 2002
About Us...
The Early Caribbean Society seeks to further the exchange of ideas and information among scholars of all nations and of various disciplines who study the literature, history, and culture of the Caribbean region from the period of the earliest written records until the era of emancipation. The Society was founded in 2002 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, by a group of scholars attending the reception hosted by the Society of Early Americanists (SEA) during the annual meeting of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies (ASECS). It aims to serve as a conduit of information among its members, to promote the study of and scholarly conversations about the early Caribbean, and to ensure that the study of the early Caribbean is represented at relevant conferences, such as ASECS, SEA, the Caribbean Studies Association (CSA), the Islands In Between Conference on Eastern Caribbean Cultures, and the Omohundro Institute for Early American History and Culture (OIEAHC).
