    CFP: Literature of the Anglo-Welsh Border

    37th International Medieval Congress (Kalamazoo, 5/02)

    I invite proposals for 20 minute papers that explore texts produced
    in the region of the Anglo-Welsh border or texts that treat this
    border in some way. Examples of such texts and authors include: the
    Harley lyrics, the Pearl-poet, Lawman, the Chester cycle, Geoffrey of
    Monmouth, Gerald of Wales, Iolo Goch, Siôn Cent, Dafydd ap
    Gwilym and Llywelyn ab y Moel. I will particularly welcome papers
    from Celticists.

    Possible topics: expressions of ethnicity or ethnic hybridity;
    borderless (or bordered) language; colonial propaganda or colonial
    resistances; travel and/or trade across the border; exploration of
    religious differences in England and Wales.

    Please send proposals by email, fax, or snail mail by September 15
    to:
