Benefits of Membership

The Society for Renaissance Studies serves as a leading organisation in the UK and Europe for the study of the Renaissance, organising conferences, publications and promoting the interdisciplinary study of the period. The Society offers a wide range of support to its members, including sponsoring conferences and occasional lectures, offering fellowships and a range of support for postgraduate study, and prizes for academic work on the period.  It also works extensively with schools and colleges, and runs a range of events to stimulate interest in the Renaissance and to support teachers.  It offers a forum for advertising forthcoming events, both within Britain and internationally and its website provides a portal to resources in the study of the Renaissance.   The Society arranges regular events and meetings and maintains contacts with other institutions such as The Renaissance Society of America. 

Annual Subscription (UK) is currently £20.00; £15.00 for a student.
Overseas Membership costs £25.00 and Institutional Membership £35.00

It is now possible to make a secure online payment or donation to the Society for Renaissance Studies through our account with the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF). Because we are a charity, membership counts as a donation on the CAF site.  Please fill in the appropriate membership fee in the donation box.
