Dear all,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is our monthly newsletter of the AMERICA2026 program, the last of 2023! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are deeply honored to welcome Thomas Jefferson\u2019s Poplar Forest in our consortium. One of only two homes Thomas Jefferson designed for his personal use, Poplar Forest (located near Lynchburg, Virginia in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains) was the place where Jefferson \u201ccame to indulge in the life of the mind and renew his personal creativity.\u201d While in residence on the plantation, Jefferson wrote his only book, Notes on the State of Virginia. <\/em>At the peak of the plantation\u2019s operation as a tobacco farm, Poplar Forest was home to 94 enslaved individuals.Through archaeology, we have learned a great deal about the daily lives of Poplar Forest\u2019s enslaved community. Current and future efforts will focus on sharing more information about the complicated and intertwined relationships between Jefferson, his family and the enslaved community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designated a National Historic Landmark by the Secretary of the Interior, and nearly lost to the threat of commercial development, Poplar Forest was rescued in 1984 by a group of local citizens who sought to preserve it for the cultural and educational benefit of current and future generations. The site opened to the public for the first time in 1986 in its pre-restoration state. Today, after 34 years of meticulous research, reconstruction and restoration, the neoclassical architecture of the octagonal house has been returned to Jefferson\u2019s design. Poplar Forest has been nominated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the nonprofit organization has received numerous awards and accolades honoring architectural and landscape restoration efforts as well as ongoing archaeological exploration, interpretation and educational programming. A recently adopted strategic plan (Fall 2022) outlines five goal pillars for the coming years, leading up to and through 2026. The full text can be found on their website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the 250th anniversary fast approaching, we invite proposals for a roundtable session (or maybe two) on INTERNATIONAL DIMENSIONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION. We are especially interested in work on the West or South during the Revolutionary era (c. 1763-1815) that centers Indigenous polities, enslaved people, free people of African descent, inter-imperial competition, migration, international trade, the circulation of ideas, discourse, and ideology, or that otherwise opens up new perspectives on the international aspects of the era. We welcome submissions by scholars at all career stages. If interested, please send a 1-page CV and 1- paragraph summary of your proposed presentation to delay@berkeley.edu by Nov.25, 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dear all, Here is our monthly newsletter of the AMERICA2026 program, the last of 2023!  We are deeply honored to welcome Thomas Jefferson\u2019s Poplar Forest in our consortium.
