| Bio: Howard Hotson is Professor of Early Modern Intellectual History at the University of Oxford. Amongst his central interests is the possibility of rewriting aspects of transnational intellectual and cultural exchange 'from the ground up' by rooting institutions, traditions and ideas in 'intellectual geographies' created by different combinations of physical, economic, social, political, cultural and religious conditions. These interests have drawn him into the social as well as technical problems of devising sustainable digital infrastructure to support large-scale, collaborative research during the next generation. Much of his thinking has been conditioned by directing since 2009 the Mellon-funded research project, Cultures of Knowledge in Oxford, responsible for creating the collaboratively populated union catalogue, Early Modern Letters Online. Between 2014 and 2018 he also chaired the COST Action Reassembling the Republic of Letters, the findings of which have just been published by the Göttingen University Press. He is also currently the PI on the AHRC-funded project, Networking Archives. | * Short bio: Howard Hotson is Professor of Early Modern Intellectual History at the University of Oxford.
