[We have the following call for papers.]
The Washington Area
Early American Seminar, hosted by the University of Maryland, College Park,
invites proposals from scholars wishing to present work in progress in the next
academic year.
The seminar meets on Fridays (monthly during term-time) and our regular members
include faculty and graduate students from a variety of DC-area institutions.
Papers are pre-circulated and our afternoon (4-6pm) seminars are followed by a
dinner at a local restaurant.
To propose a paper, please send a brief cv and a tentative title along with a
300 word description of the topic and its connection to your publishing plans
to Rick Bell (rjbell@umd.edu) and Holly
Brewer (hbrewer@umd.edu). We especially
welcome proposals from scholars farther afield who will be visiting the DC area
for research this coming year. For consideration for the 2013-14 academic year,
please send proposals before 1 July 2013.
