    The Nathaniel Hawthorne Society will hold its biennial summer conference,
    June 20-23, 2002, at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts.
    While all Hawthorne-related proposals will be considered, we offer the
    following themes:
      Hawthornian geographies: how does his work explore or illuminate the
    distinctive spaces of 19thC culture--e.g. the terrains of leisure and
    tourism, Concord, England, Europe
      Hawthorne in the culture of letters: questions of reception, the
    literary career, critical history
      Hawthornian histories: new contextual work of all sorts
      Hawthorne and the writing of childhood
      Sesquicentennial reflections: the cultural force of The House of the
    Seven Gables, The Blithedale Romance, A Wonder-Book
     
    Paper proposals, no longer than 2 double-spaced pages, to Professor
    Richard Millington, Deparment of English, Smith College, Northampton, MA,
    01063, by January 30, 2002. (Proposals sent via email attachment to
    rmilling@smith.edu are welcome). For further information about
