SUMMARY:America’s ‘First Revolution’: Indigenous Nations\, Bacon’s Rebellion\, and Mythologies of Independence from 1676 to Today
DESCRIPTION:LaPenta School of Business\, Henry Lecture Hall\, Iona University & Virtual via Zoom\nAs the United States reflects on the 250th anniversary of independence\, the question of what defines a revolution is an enduring one\, especially its motivations\, goals\, and chronology. When veered toward separation from the British Empire\, their prior experience with resistance and revolt shaped their answers. One example\, Bacon’s Rebellion\, was once called America’s ‘First’ Revolution by historians. Taking place exactly one hundred years before the Declaration of Independence\, the conflict has often been understood as an early site of resistance to British authority\, which elevated it to a prophetic event with mythological power. The narratives that subsequently developed around rebellion\, revolution\, and\, eventually\, independence—not only in the eighteenth century but also in popular and scholarly imaginations today—often reflected that perception. Moreover\, these narratives were also part of an even earlier chronology\, one where the specter of the English Revolution (1639–1659) was a pervasive narrative touchstone. Yet\, as more recent scholarship demonstrates\, the imaginary around Bacon’s Rebellion and the origins of revolution was far more complex\, particularly in the roles that played alongside enslaved\, colonial\, and imperial actors. \nFor the Institute for Thomas Paine Studies’ (ITPS) Seventh Biannual Conference\, we hope to contribute to ongoing dialogues about commemoration and American independence by considering these earlier debates around the meanings of revolution. Conference panels will consider these themes not just around late seventeenth century histories\, but also how a variety of peoples interpreted the meanings of rebellion\, revolution\, and independence in the centuries before 1776. \n“America’s ‘First’ Revolution” will be a fully hybrid program\, with virtual and in person components on the Iona campus in New Rochelle\, which is located just outside New York City in Westchester County. \nConference Program\nFriday\, September 25\nIn-person registration: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-itps-bi-annual-conference-day-one-tickets-1998219995798 \n3pm – 4:30pm\nPANEL 1: Choosing Their Ground: Indigenous Strategy\, Resistance\, and Survival in Bacon’s Rebellion\nCentering Indigenous perspectives\, this panel reexamines Bacon’s Rebellion by highlighting the strategic choices\, diplomatic negotiations\, and acts of resistance that Native nations employed amid the conflict. By foregrounding Indigenous agency\, the discussion challenges older narratives that portray Native peoples as peripheral to the rebellion and instead reveals their central role in shaping the political and military landscape of seventeenth-century Virginia.\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_EW6KSp-0TkKIF3kSi5hHLw \nChair and Panelist: Michael Leroy Oberg \n\nEdward DuBois Ragan\nJames D. Rice\nJulia King\n\n5pm – 6:30pm \nWelcoming Remarks \nTricia Mulligan\, Provost\, Iona University \nPlenary: Understanding Rebellion Through a Pamunkey Lens\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_kpUiMDfmR0OAMi-_A64rOQ \nChair: Hayley Negrin \n\nEthan Brown\nAlly Gray\nAshley Spivey\n\n6:30pm – 7:30pm\nPlenary reception \nSaturday\, September 26\nIn-person registration: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-itps-bi-annual-conference-day-two-tickets-1998220145245 \n9am – 10:30am\nPANEL 2: Bacon’s Rebellion Reconsidered: Empire\, Indigenous Nations\, and Colonial Authority\nRevisiting one of the defining conflicts of seventeenth-century British America\, this panel\nexamines Bacon’s Rebellion through the intersecting lenses of imperial governance\, legal\nauthority\, and historical memory. Together\, the papers challenge traditional interpretations of\nthe rebellion by exploring how its causes\, consequences\, and commemorations shaped\ncompeting visions of empire\, colonial power\, and the origins of revolution.\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ZfirchO7T1yAtQjJJ07Qjw \nChair: James Ambuske\n● Zachary Kopin\, “The Board of Trade’s Vision for Dominion: Circum-Atlantic Chaos\,\nEdward Randolph\, and the Legal Revolution of 1676”\n● Rebekah Planto\, “To Bury All Seeds of Future Discords”: Excavating Bacon’s Rebellion and\nits Afterlives at “Bacon’s Castle\,” Surry County\, Virginia\n● Peter Olsen Harbich\, ““Protecting Darling Indians: A Durable Imperial Policy?” \n10:45am – 12:15pm\nPANEL 3: New Netherland and the Contested Northeast: Empire\, Diplomacy\, and Indigenous\nSovereignty\nThis panel explores the seventeenth-century Northeast as a dynamic region where Dutch\ncolonists\, Indigenous nations\, and rival European empires negotiated competing claims to land\,\nauthority\, and political power. By centering Indigenous diplomacy alongside the Dutch Atlantic\,\nthe papers challenge Anglo-centric narratives of colonial America and illuminate histories of\nrebellion\, sovereignty\, and resistance beyond Virginia.\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_QWrlGB8ITNueBi46bO4lkA \nChair: Deborah Hamer\, New Netherland Institute\n● BJ Lillis\, ITPS\n● Erin Kramer\, Trinity University [virtual]\n● Andrea Mosterman\, University of New Orleans\n● Megan Cherry\, North Carolina State University \n12:15pm – 3:00pm\nLunch and Exhibition Viewing \n1:30pm – 3:00pm\nPANEL 4: Revolutions Across Empires: Resistance and Independence in the Atlantic World\nThis panel situates the history of revolution within a broader Atlantic world\, tracing how ideas of\nresistance\, sovereignty\, and independence circulated across imperial boundaries and diverse\npolitical communities. From Igbo resistance in the colonial Americas and revolutionary Louisiana\nto transnational radical networks and the Corsican Republic\, the papers reveal the\ninterconnected ideas and struggles that shaped the Age of Revolutions across multiple empires.\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_h5loIAaBSR-6n1ei48SzwQ \nChair: Mark Boonshoft\n● Fernando Cyrillo Júnior\, Transnational Networks of Radicalism: Recontextualizing\nFreethought in Revolutionary America [virtual]\n● Guilherme Farias Ghefter\, La Rivoluzione and The Revolution – An overview of\nearly-American sentiment regarding the Corsican Republic (1755-1787)\n● Melissa Morris\, title forthcoming [virtual]\n● Ala Montgomery\, title forthcoming \n3:15pm – 4:45pm\nPANEL 5: Revolution Remembered and Repurposed: Memory\, Race\, and Historical Narratives\nThis panel examines how the meanings of revolution have been remembered\, contested\, and\nreimagined across generations. Spanning topics from race and historical anthropology to\nLoyalist memory\, gradual abolition\, and nineteenth-century radicalism\, the papers explore how\nrevolutionary ideals were interpreted\, challenged\, and mobilized long after the events\nthemselves\, revealing the enduring power of revolutions in shaping historical narratives and\npolitical thought.\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4IyIz22KSBulGaEsYgmhpA \nChair: Nicole Mahoney\n● Emilee Robbins\, “Memoir and Memory: How Loyalist Elizabeth Fisher Recalled\nRevolution” [virtual]\n● Kelly Ryan\, “The Tyranny of Kings\, Capital\, and Commerce: Why American Radicals\nEmbraced Social Revolution in France\, 1848”\n● Kaitlin Tonti\, “Understanding Revolution in the New Republic: The Question of Gradual\nAbolition” [virtual] \n5pm – 6:30pm\nKeynote address: Dr. Kathleen Brown\, “Bacon’s Rebellion: History\, Historical Fiction\, and Political Legacy”\nWebinar link: https://iona.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_gQ0S1AVGQ7mm4vz2xwrTeA \n6:30pm – 7:30pm\nKeynote reception \n  \nThis conference is possible thanks to support from “Common Sense and the Constitution: Civic Engagement in the Spirit of 1776” initiative from the American History and Civics Education – Seminars (AHC-Seminars) Program at the Department of Education and the Lapidus Initiative for Early American Inquiry. \nRead the complete Call for Proposals here.

SUMMARY:Taking Stock and Setting Agendas: A Workshop on Data\, Digital Humanities\, and Early American Studies
DESCRIPTION:CALL FOR PAPERS\nOver thirty years of digitally informed scholarship have proven that the digital humanities have much to offer the field of early American studies. The Institute for Thomas Paine Studies at Iona University\, the McNeil Center for Early American Studies at the University of Pennsylvania\, the Open U.S. History Lab at the University of Texas at Dallas\, and the journal\, Early American Studies\, invite proposals for a workshop exploring the intersection of the digital humanities (DH) and early American studies. The hybrid workshop will be held in person at the campus of Iona University in New Rochelle\, New York\, and virtually through Zoom from Friday\, September 19th\, 2025\, to Saturday\, September 20th\, 2025. \nParticipants in the workshop will precirculate papers of approximately 5\,000 words and be expected to read and comment on the work of three other participants. All papers will be considered for publication in a special issue of Early American Studies that will attempt to both historicize digital scholarship in early American studies and consider where the field should go from here. We welcome scholars from a host of disciplines including\, but not limited to: literature and literary studies\, history\, computer science\, anthropology\, religious studies\, art history\, library and information science\, area studies\, communication\, Native American and Indigenous studies\, geography\, media studies\, and all others who explore how the digital humanities offer new insights to the study of early America. \nProposals should fall into one of two categories: 1) “taking stock\,” or reflections\, broadly defined\, on different aspects of digitally informed scholarship in the field of early American studies\, and 2) “setting agendas” or considerations of where to go next. Accepted participants in both categories will be expected to submit papers of approximately 5\,000 words by August 1\, 2025. \nAuthors who contribute to the “Taking Stock” section will write surveys of how scholars have used a given digital method or tool over the last several decades. Examples of these methods or tools may include digital mapping\, text mining\, data visualization\, network analysis\, augmented/virtual reality\, digital curation\, podcasting\, transcription\, artificial intelligence\, and more. We envision these pieces as examinations of the use of these methods across the field of early American studies\, not as individual project profiles. \nAuthors who write for “Setting Agendas” will write argument-driven\, “thought” essays which use the digital humanities to offer a scholarly intervention in the field of early American Studies or pieces that demonstrate how deeper insights into early America change our understanding of the digital world. We envision these papers as more future-oriented works. \nTo submit a proposal\, please send a single document including a brief biographical statement and abstract of no more than 300 words in one document to bgw@utdallas.edu by June 1\, 2025. We will notify presenters of acceptance by June 15th\, 2025. The program committee includes the editors of Early American Studies\, Rosalind J. Beiler\, University of Central Florida\, and Judith Ridner\, Mississippi State University; along with Emma Hart and Peter Olsen-Harbich of the McNeil Center and the University of Pennsylvania; Mark Boonshoft\, Virginia Military Institute; Nora Slonimsky\, Iona University and the Institute for Thomas Paine Studies; and Ben Wright\, the University of Texas at Dallas and the Open U.S. History Lab. \nJoin us for a dynamic conversation on the evolving relationship between the digital humanities and Early American Studies. We look forward to your contributions! \nFor inquiries\, please contact Ben Wright at bgw@utdallas.edu. \nCLICK HERE FOR THE PROGRAM

SUMMARY:ITPS Patriots' Day Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Symposium Page \nAs part of the Iona Month of Excellence in Scholarly and Creative Activities\, “From Concord to Common Sense: Commemoration and Conflict in the Legacy of the American Revolution” will explore the complex relationship between celebration and critique of the American war for independence. \nInspired by the creation of Patriots’ Day in the late nineteenth century\, this symposium will discuss how we remember the Revolutionary Era. A holiday celebrated in three states – and recognized locally in many others – Patriots’ Day commemorates the battles of Lexington and Concord on the third Monday of April every year\, recognizing them start of the American Revolution. Three roundtable discussions and an ITPS archival exhibit will address questions of what commemoration means\, the social role and responsibility of commemorative practices\, and how evolving methodologies in the digital humanities and in public history influence our historical memory of events and figures—from Thomas Paine to the 21st century. \nThis event is free and open to the public. No RSVP required!
