Sixteenth Century Society and Conference

The Sixteenth Century Society and Conference (SCSC) is a learned society that promotes research on the early modern period. The society is interdisciplinary in membership, welcoming scholars in history, art history, religion, history of science, musicology, dance history, and literary and cultural studies in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.

The SCSC has close associations with an academic journal, the Sixteenth Century Journal (SCJ), and with the Iter bibliographic database. The society also sponsors a book series, Early Modern Studies, now published by the Truman State University Press.

The SCSC holds an annual conference, usually during October.

Currently, the President is Walter S. Melion of Emory University.

Former leadership includes President Amy Burnett, Department of History, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and Executive Director Donald J. Harreld, Department of History, Brigham Young University.
