AAASS'03 panel proposal

[Inessa Medzhibovskaya]

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to organize a new panel at AAASS'03 in Toronto -- "Ages of
the World and Epochs of Human Development (Russian Case Studies)."  My
own paper will be on the theory of these epochs in Tolstoy.  I would
like to invite submissions treating time from the perspectives and in
the modes of antropomorphic imagination, as the space between the
secular and the sacred, the philosophy of time (the title of the panel
hints at Schelling but is not limited to his conceptions), the
apocalyptic and evolutionary competitions in the Russian scheme of
being  or the space of human time in a specific historical time frame.
The proposal welcomes interdisciplinarity (history, philosophy,
literature, religion, visual arts, education etc.) but does not presume
that it should override either more original or more traditional
treatments.  Self-nominations for chairing the panel/being its
discussant(s) are very welcome.

With warm holiday greetings to all,



Inessa Medzhibovskaya

ps. Please reply off-list.
