The Society of Early Americanists

The purpose of SEA is to further the exchange of ideas & information among scholars who study the literature & culture of the early Americas.

After discussion at our 2025 business meeting, the SEA has decided to stop using this platform. We will continue to share society news on Facebook, on the earam listserv, and on the SEA Discord server.
