In the last few years, the British Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies has been able to build on a substantial legacy of scholarship and organisation. However, while the Society can continue what it is doing without change, it needs further support if it is to expand and grow.

All support for the Society’s activities, particularly that for the prizes and awards schemes is welcome. If you wish to donate, download the PDF and return to the Treasurer.

If you have particular ideas about how you might assist us, please contact the President.
