The Consortium on the Revolutionary Era issues its third and final call for papers for its 2007 Conference, scheduled for the weekend of March 1-3. With an expanded scope, the CRE is now a venue for both traditional revolutionary history and comparative efforts. Sessions will focus both on Europe and other places, especially those throughout the Atlantic world, from 1750-1850.
The 2007 conference will be held at the Westin Arlington Gateway Hotel in Arlington, Virginia, close in to Washington, D.C., and near the Metro. The hotel is also conveniently located near many area shops and restaurants. Our three plenary speakers for the conference include Philip Morgan of Johns Hopkins, Sarah Maza of Northwestern, and Charles Tilly of Columbia.
The deadline for proposals is October 15, 2006. The program committee prefers complete sessions (three papers, a chair, and commentator) but will also accept proposals for incomplete sessions and individual papers. Please include name of presenter, title of paper, and brief abstract (no more than one page, single-spaced) for each paper; and brief CVs (no more than 2 pages) for each participant, as part of your proposal. Both traditional presentations of new research and roundtable discussions are welcome. Proposals from doctoral students are encouraged.
For more information on the Consortium, see our website, http://revolutionaryera.org/.
Please send proposals to Jennifer Lansbury, Department of History and Art History, George Mason University, MSN 3G1, 4400 University Blvd., Fairfax, Virginia, 22030. Electronic proposals should also be sent to Jenny at jlansbur@gmu.edu. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact her at the above email, or call at 703-978-5143.
