Medieval History
2010 Call For Papers
Plymouth State University
31st Annual Medieval and Renaissance Forum
Friday and Saturday 16-17 April 2010
Call for Papers, Sessions, and Undergraduate Posters
?Time, Temporality, History?
We invite abstracts in medieval and Early Modern studies that
consider questions of periodization, historicity, and temporality.
Papers may consider:
* how people conceived of, constructed, interacted with,
measured, or produced ?time? in medieval and Early Modern cultures
* how we currently construct or deconstruct history
* how studying temporality illuminates other subjects.
Papers need not be confined to the theme, but may cover many aspects
of medieval and Renaissance life, literature, languages, art,
philosophy, theology, history and music. Student sessions welcome.
Undergraduate posters are encouraged.
Undergraduate session includes posters, art, interactive exhibits,
and multimedia presentations. Each display must include a brief
explanation or hand-out. These should be designed to initiate
thoughtful discussion about each student?s research and project
goals. Projects may be set up at any time; however, students must be
present during judging (TBA). Undergraduate students require a formal
sponsorship letter from a faculty member with whom they have
acquaintance. There will be a reduced entry fee for poster
presenters.
This year?s keynote speaker is Dr. Carolyn Dinshaw, Professor of
English/Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University. Dr.
Dinshaw, the author of Getting Medieval: Sexualities and
Communities, Pre- and Postmodern and Chaucer?s Sexual Poetics,
researches and publishes widely on medieval literature and culture,
feminist studies, lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender studies, history
of sexuality, theories of history and historiography, and mysticism.
Her most recent work focuses on theories and experiences of
temporality.
Students, faculty, and independent scholars are welcome. For more
