The period from late antiquity to the early middle ages was one of
great social movement, of both individuals and people groups. How
did people respond to demands made upon them for hospitality and
charity by pilgrims, casualties of war, refugees, orphans, widows,
those of other religions, the sick, the poor, itinerant monks and
nuns, travelling traders and others?

Invited speakers:
Dr Anna Silvas, University of New England
Dr Wendy Mayer, Washington DC

Papers are invited on a broad range of topics related to the theme of
'Welcoming the Stranger', tapping various sources, including
literature, archaeology, epigraphy and the arts. A title and a 250
word abstract should be sent by 30 June 2008 to the Conference
Convenors. Please include affiliation and contact details with your
abstract.

Presenters will be invited to publish their papers in the refereed
