At the 1999 meeting of South Eastern American Society for
Eighteenth-Century studies I chaired a panel on teaching the 18th century.
I would like to do a return engagement for the meeting to be held in
Savannah March 2-4, 2000.
When you teach eighteenth century studies, how do you provide the students
with a context in which to read the books, see the pictures, understand the
history, analyze the philosophy, experience the music, (insert your
discipline here)? I would like a few good short (10 minute) papers in
which the speakers each describe a particular approach-- a picture, a field
trip, a particular work, a dramatic presentation-- which they use to give
their students a sense of the period. All disciplines are welcome and
encouraged; I intend to set up an interdisciplinary panel.
Please note the time-- I want to keep the presentations short and really
specific , so that the audience has time to talk as well. This particular
session was very well attended in Knoxville, and I hope I will be able to
say the same about next year's meeting.
Please send a brief description of your paper to me privately at
mbowden@ksumail.kennesaw.edu by August 15, 1999.
Thank you!
Martha
