CALL FOR Papers:

The Future of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance: Problems, Trends, and Opportunities in Research


February 15-17, 1996


ACMRS at Arizona State University invites papers for its second annual interdisciplinary conference on Medieval and Renaissance studies on the general topic of problems and new directions in the study of the Middle Ages and Early Modern period. Possible session topics include, but are not restricted to:

While we want a broad spectrum of area studies represented, we are particularly interested in papers on Scandinavian, Baltic/East European, Judaic, and Mediterranean Studies. There will also be a number of open sessions.

Papers accepted for sessions on Mediterranean Studies will have passed the first level of review for publication in the journal Mediterranean Studies, sponsored by the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth, the Medieval and Renaissance Colloquium (MARC) at the University of Michigan, and ACMRS at Arizona State University.

The conference will be held at the Radisson Mission Palms Hotel, two blocks from the ASU campus in Tempe, a suburb of Phoenix, Arizona. The high temperature in the "Valley of the Sun" during February averages 70 degrees.

Proposals for sessions and detailed abstracts or complete papers will be accepted beginning July 1, 1995. The deadline is November 1, 1995.

Please send two copies of your abstract, paper and/or session proposal, along with two copies of your c.v., to the program committee chair:
