Fwd: CFP: Slavic Forum at UofC

[David Kaiser]

The deadline for submission of abstracts for the University of Chicago
Slavic Forum is almost upon us, less than two weeks (2/15). I would like to
especially encourage students in Slavic linguistics to take advantage of
this opportunity to submit a paper for the conference, since this year we
will have panels in linguistics as well as literature. Thank you for your
attention, we look forward to reading the abstracts.

On the contrary, it enlarged my sense of myself."
