    CALL FOR PAPERS
    for a special session on

    "The Origins of Modern Ethnography: Describing the "Other" in the Renaissance"

    at the Sixteenth Century Studies Conference
    to be held in Denver, Colorado, on 25-28 October 2001.

    Proposals for 20 minute presentations are invited on the practice and
    emergence of a new ethnography in the Renaissance. We are particularly
    interested in papers that examine conceptional and representational
    strategies (in travel narratives, literature, religious writings,
    theatre, triumphal entries, etc.) dealing either with the ethnographic
    "Other" or with the new sensitivity within Europe for material culture
    related to European expansion or contact with the "Other".

    Proposals should be emailed to Prof. Konrad Eisenbichler at
    konrad.eisenbichler@utoronto.ca by Wednesday, 14 March 2001 and should
    contain a title, a 100 words summary, and a one-page (maximum)
    curriculum vitae.
