2013 Meeting
St Louis, Missouri
The Southern Conference on British Studies solicits
proposals for its 2013 meeting to be held November 1-2, 2013 in St Louis,
Missouri. The SCBS will meet in conjunction with the Southern Historical
Association at the Millen.
The SCBS invites participation by scholars in all areas of
British history and culture, including that of the Empire or Commonwealth and
the British Isles. Interdisciplinary approaches and proposals which focus
broadly on teaching British studies are especially welcome.
Proposals may consist of individual papers or of papers
grouped for a session. For session proposals, two, or, preferably, three papers
should relate to a common theme, not necessarily bound by the usual
chronological framework.
For each paper proposed, please submit an abstract of 200 to
300 words, indicating the thesis of the paper, the sources and methodology
employed in research, and how it enhances or expands knowledge of its subject.
Papers should have a reading time of twenty to twenty-five minutes. Also,
please submit a curriculum vitae for each participant.
March 29, 2013 is the
Deadline for submissions either by post or e-mail:
