Book History Seminar
12 November 2004, 1.00--5.00pm
University of Sheffield
The White Rose Book History Seminar invites proposals for
papers to be given at its rescheduled third seminar to be held on
Friday 12 November 2004 in the Department of English
Literature at the University of Sheffield.
The White Rose Book History Seminar is a thrice-yearly
interdisciplinary seminar series based, and run jointly, at
the Universities of Leeds, York and Sheffield. Seminars
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.
The seminar 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 are therefore invited on any area of book history and
relating to any period. Papers may adopt either a
theoretical manner or utilise 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 20 minutes in length.
Abstracts of no more than 200 words should be sent by Friday
29 October 2004 to h.mathison_at_shef.ac.uk
