John Dickinson Symposium: New Perspectives on the American Founding

Reception

Free & In-Person

Friday,  October 20th at 5:15pm – 6:45 pm ET 

To commemorate the publication of the first volumes of The Complete Writings and Selected Correspondence of John Dickinson, ed. Jane E. Calvert (University of Delaware Press/Rutgers University Press),this symposium will, for the first time, assemble a range of scholars from various disciplines doing new and original work on Dickinson. Based on early access to sources collected by the John Dickinson Writings Project, their work demonstrates the breadth of research possible on this heretofore understudied but central figure in the American Founding. This two-day event is free and open to the public and will be hosted and sponsored jointly by the American Philosophical Society, the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Library Company of Philadelphia, and the McNeil Center for Early American Studies. Friday will feature a series of expert panels hosted at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and a closing reception at the Library Company.

Hosted by the Library Company of Philadelphia
