SUMMARY:Gold: The Universal Equivalent of Global Dreams\, Desires\, Arts
  and Values in Early Modern History
DESCRIPTION:This conference brings together scholars from different disc
 iplines to analyze the economic and artistic values of gold and their pl
 ace in the interconnected world of Early Modern European\, African\, Asi
 an and American cultures. Although gold is recognized as a “beguilingâ
 €ť universal equivalent as recently discussed by Zorach and Phillips (20
 16)\, the values of gold are also historically specific. The early moder
 n world represents one of gold’s crucial transformative moments when i
 ts various meanings and roles were reaffirmed and/or transformed. The fo
 cus of the conference will be on articulating specific instances of the 
 shifting uses\, roles\, and values of gold within the artistic\, economi
 c and symbolic arenas of world cultures. Changes as well as continuities
  in local cultures are in part conditioned by new global contacts that a
 re sustained by gold’s importance within imperial ambitions and mercan
 tile capitalism. More information.
