CFP: London Nineteenth-Century Studies Seminar postgraduate day (3/25/2013; 4/20/2013)


The London Nineteenth-Century Studies Seminar will hold a one-day postgraduate conference on Saturday 20 April at Senate House, University of London.

The purpose of the day is to enable graduate students across London who are working on topics in the long nineteenth century to meet each other, learn more about each other’s work, and discover shared interests in a friendly and collegial setting.

We invite proposals from postgraduate research students registered at any of the Colleges and Institutes of the University of London, for short (ten-minute) papers which present an overview of your PhD project. (We welcome papers which focus primarily on a particular aspect, so long as that aspect is contextualized to some extent by the framework of an overall project.)

Please send 200-word proposals to the organizing committee, c/o James Emmott (Birkbeck) <james@emmott.org> by Monday 25 March. We will confirm your inclusion in the programme shortly afterwards.
