CALL FOR PAPERS
NORTH AMERICAN CONFERENCE ON BRITISH STUDIES
ANNUAL MEETING
LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY
NOVEMBER 6 – 8, 2009
The NACBS and its Southern affiliate, the SCBS, seek participation by scholars in all areas of British Studies for the 2009 meeting. We solicit proposals for panels on England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and the British Empire broadly defined. Our interests range from the medieval to the modern, and we welcome participation by historians, literary critics, economists, political scientists, sociologists, art historians, and scholars in other allied disciplines.
We invite panel proposals addressing selected themes, methodology, and pedagogy, as well as roundtable discussions of topical and thematic interest. North American scholars, international scholars, and graduate students are all encouraged to submit proposals to the NACBS Program Committee.
Strong preference will be given to complete panel or roundtable proposals that consider a common theme. Individual paper proposals will also be considered where possible, but those with single paper submissions are encouraged to post a call for additional panelists on lists such as H-Albion or to email the Program Chair for suggestions. No participant will be permitted to take part in more than one session, and no more than one proposal will be considered from each applicant. Committed to ensuring the broadest possible participation of scholars in British Studies, the Program Committee will give priority to those who did not read papers at the 2008 meeting. Panels that include both graduate students and established scholars are especially encouraged, as are submissions with broad chronological focus and interdisciplinary breadth.
All submissions must be received by Friday, January 30, 2009.
For details, directions, and online submission, see www.nacbs.org.
General questions about panel requirements should be sent to
