WHITE ROSE BOOK HISTORY SEMINAR
"Innovations in Book History"
21 January 2004, 1.00--5.00pm
Brotherton Library, University of Leeds
The White Rose Book History Seminar is a thrice-yearly
interdisciplinary seminar series based at the Universities of
Leeds, Sheffield, and York. The seminars are intended to cover
all periods and all aspects of book history, encouraging dialogue
and debate among specialists from a wide range of scholarly
disciplines, including English and other literatures, history, history
of science, art history, social sciences, and education.
This inaugural meeting is devoted not only to exploring new
directions in book history research, but also to considering the
ways in which book history is bringing new perspectives to bear
on existing research problems in a range of disciplines. Papers
might address this theme either in a theoretical manner or
through practical examples of book history research.
Researchers from any period--Anglo-Saxon to post-modern--
are welcome to contribute.
Proposals are invited for papers of 25 minutes in length.
Abstracts of no more than 200 words should be sent by 19
December to j.r.topham@leeds.ac.uk.
