Call for Papers
You are cordially invited to participate in the 2015 meeting of the Southeastern Medieval Association. This year?s meeting will take place at the Wyndham Riverfront Hotel in North Little Rock, Arkansas on Thursday, October 22, 2015 through Saturday, October 24, 2015, and is sponsored by the University of Central Arkansas.
The theme of this year?s meeting is ?Heaven, Hell, and Little Rock,? in celebration of a host of anniversaries celebrated this year (the Fourth Lateran Council, the 750th anniversary of Dante?s birth, the burning of Jan Hus, the signing of the Magna Carta). We welcome submissions and encourage panels related to these anniversaries or on other medieval topics. Further, in acknowledgment of the pivotal role that Little Rock, this year?s conference location, played in the American civil rights movement. In the spirit of this significant step in; the civil rights movement, we would like to encourage for this conference an emphasis on the ?Other? Middle Ages, and encourage panels on East Asia, South Asia, and Islam at the time of the European Middle Ages, as well as panels on the ?Other? within medieval Christendom (e.g., Jews and other non-Christians, Norse encounters with ?Skraelingas,? or the treatment of the disabled, diseased, sexually ?deviant,? or ?mad? in Christian society).
In addition, this year?s meeting will include several sessions devoted to undergraduate research. Please encourage students who have done especially good work to submit abstracts.
Please submit proposals for sessions and individual papers using the link at http://goo.gl/forms/KDyCGVPqoN no later than July 1, 2015.
Plenary Speakers:
Dr. Peter S. Hawkins of the Yale Divinity School (author of Dante?s Testaments: Essays on Scriptural Imagination and Dante: A Brief History among others) will give a plenary address called "Dante's 'Other': Thinking outside the Christian Box."
Dr. Thomas A. Fudge of the University of New England (author of Heresy and Hussites in Late Medieval Europe and The Trial of Jan Hus: Medieval Heresy and Criminal Procedure, among others) will give a plenary address on Hus and his martyrdom.
Dr. Stephen Owen of Harvard University (author of The Late Tang: Chinese Poetry of the Mid-Ninth Century (827-860) and The Making of Early Chinese Classical Poetryamong others) will give a plenary address on Tang poetry and culture.
