I've extended the deadline for abstracts for the special session on
"Teaching Romanticism and History" at the 2002 NASSR Conference, to be
held 22-25 August 2002 in London, Ontario. The new deadline is 7 January
2002, and the panel description is below.
Romantic studies has benefited from a substantial body of historical
scholarship in the past decade. This work has provided such fundamental
new insights about the political, cultural, economic, and social
revolutions of the period that the ground for what constitutes Romantic
studies has shifted. "Romanticism" has become a highly contested category,
and these contestations have clearly manifested themselves in the ways in
which Romanticism is taught.
For this panel, I am soliciting papers that discuss ways in which
Romanticist historical scholarship has led those who teach the period to
reshape, revise, revitalize, or reconceptualize the courses they offer in
the field. I am interested in both theoretical and practical approaches to
the problem of how to incorporate historicist work and insights into the
teaching of Romanticism. Please send 500-word abstracts (and queries) to
Bonnie Gunzenhauser at bgunzenhauser@mail.millikin.edu. The new deadline
for submission is January 7.
Details about the conference----the annual meeting of the North American
Society for the Study of Romanticism----are available at
