Please pardon the slightly scrambled version of this Call for Papers that
posted last night; I am trying again.  --Mike Finke

> Call For Papers
>
> The North American Chekhov Society (NACS) is issuing a call for papers
> to be presented at the Chekhov Centenary Symposium that will take place
> on Thursday, October 14, 2004, at Colby College in Waterville, Maine.
> The NACS Chekhov Centenary Symposium will be followed by a two-day
> conference (October 15-16, 2004) dedicated to the American reception of
> Chekhov. Participants in the latter meeting-- the full breadth of which
> remains contingent on funding-- will include translators, theater
scholars
> and directors, writers and public critics, and physicians and scholars
> working in the medical humanities. Prospective participants in the NACS
> symposium can thus plan on attending three days of presentations and
> roundtables on Chekhov, with all NACS papers to be delivered on
> Thursday, October 14. The jubilee event will include Chekhov
> performances and demonstrations by two New York theater groups.
>
> Organizers of the Chekhov Centenary Symposium welcome the broadest range
> of scholarly approaches and topics. Papers may be delivered in English
> or Russian and should be twenty minutes long. Graduate students working
> on Chekhov are encouraged to present. A title and abstract must be
> submitted no later than May 31, 2004.
>
> Colby College is situated in Waterville, Maine, an hour-plus drive from
> the airports in Portland and Bangor, or three hours by car north of
> Boston, and six hours southeast of Montreal. Information on travel and
> accommodations will be sent to participants in June, 2004.
>
> Please send two copies of your title and abstract, one to each of the
> conference co-organizers, by post or e-mail. Include your name, address,
> telephone, e-mail, fax, and institutional affiliation.
