CALL FOR PAPERS
Midwest Conference on British Studies
Annual Meeting
October 18-20, 2002
Columbus, Ohio
The Midwest Conference on British Studies will hold its annual
meeting in Columbus, Ohio on October 18-20, 2002. The host institution is
Ohio State University, and Professor David Cressy is in charge of local
arrangements. Invitations to serve as plenary speakers have been tendered
to, and tentatively accepted by, the distinguished historians Gareth
Stedman-Jones and Miri Rubin.
The MWCBS seeks papers from scholars in all fields of British
studies, including advanced graduate students. Proposals for complete
sessions organized around a common theme are preferred, though proposals
for individual papers will be considered if they can be combined with
others. A complete session generally consists of three papers (20 minutes
each), a chair, and a commentator. Proposals will also be considered for
roundtable discussions of important or timely subjects. Proposals should
include a 200-word abstract for each paper and a brief c.v. for each
participant, including chairs and commentators.
The MWCBS will award a prize for the best graduate student paper
given at the conference.
All proposals should be submitted by April 1 to:
