Transitions in Text, Time, and Place: Late Antique to Medieval to Early Modern
Brown University is hosting the nineteenth annual Graduate Student
Conference in Medieval Studies on April 14th, 2001. This year's conference
will focus on "transitional areas" in the formation (and the deformation)
of European textual, material, and social cultures from Late Antiquity to
Early Modernity. We invite analyses of works that are situated within
liminal moments or that articulate the circumstances of (or perhaps the
resistance to) various transforming energies, as well as meta-critical
investigations of the premises underwriting concepts such as "period" and
"transition" themselves. In the interest of disciplinary breadth, we
encourage graduate scholarship from a variety of perspectives, including
(but not limited to): Anthropology, Archaeology, Art History, Classical
Studies, History, Linguistics, Literary Studies, Musicology, Philosophy,
and Theology. Papers should not exceed a twenty minute reading time.
Please send a one page abstract no later than January 15th, 2001 to:
The Program in Medieval Studies
Box 1905
Brown University
Providence, RI 02912
As well, abstracts can be e-mailed to <Carole_Cramer@Brown.Edu>

additional inquires should be directed to either James_Cahill@Brown.Edu;

We look forward to seeing you in April!
