Southern Conference on British Studies
Atlanta, Georgia
November 14-15, 2014
Deadline for submission: March 15, 2014
The Southern Conference on British Studies solicits proposals for its 2014 meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, Nov. 14-15, 2014. The SCBS will meet in conjunction with the Southern Historical Association. The 2014 SCBS annual meeting will feature a plenary address by Susan R. Grayzel, University of Mississippi and a roundtable discussion featuring Michael P. Winship on his book, Godly Republicanism: Puritans, Pilgrims and a City on a Hill.
The SCBS construes British Studies widely and invites participation by scholars in all areas of British history and culture, including the Empire or Commonwealth and the British Isles. Interdisciplinary approaches and proposals that 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 words, a CV, and contact information for each participant. Proposals should be sent to Dr. Katherine Grenier at: grenierk@citadel.edu or Department of History, The Citadel, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, SC 29409.
