*Reminder: Call for Papers*
* *
We are pleased to invite papers for our monthly postgraduate and ECR
seminars to be held throughout term time in 2013. We would like to
encourage researchers to explore a wide variety of methodologies under the
banner of American studies. Proposals are invited on *any* topic or theme
related to the study of the United States from *any *discipline. All papers
should include at least a short explanation of the methodology used in
research, or alternatively can take a focus on research methods throughout.
Sessions will be ninety minutes in duration and consist of two
thirty-minute slots (each slot will contain a twenty minute paper and ten
minutes for questions). This will be followed by a thirty-minute informal
discussion. Events will be held at the University of Liverpool and the
University of Manchester but we would like to encourage offers to host
seminar sessions from other North-West Universities.
Funds are available to subsidize travel for those presenting their work.
Brief proposals of no more than 400 words should be submitted by
Monday 11thFebruary
2013. The first seminar will be held on the 28th February at the University
of Liverpool at 5pm.
Please send your proposal for papers to
rcas.nw@gmail.com
Many thanks.
