Call for Papers AAASS 10

[Rouhier-Willoughby, Jeanmarie]

The Slavic and East European Folklore Association, an AAASS affiliate, issues an annual call for papers for the AAASS Conference. Participation in our panels does not require SEEFA membership. We particularly welcome participation from specialists in other fields of study, such as literature, anthropology, history. We are calling for proposals for the following panel topics related to this theme for AAASS 2010 in Los Angeles:

1) epic poetry (and/or papers on other folk genres dedicated to the war experience)

2) gender and age roles in folklore (aka: “war of the sexes and of generations”)

We will also organize panels on the following topics, which may or may not be included in the War and Peace series, depending on the content of proposals received:

3) written and oral narrative in contemporary folklore

4) folklore and film

If you would like to submit a proposal for these panels, please submit a AAASS c.v. form (available online at http://www.aaassmembers.org/) and a title and abstract of your proposed paper by January 5 to Jeanmarie Rouhier-Willoughby at j.rouhier at uky.edu<mailto:j.rouhier at uky.edu>
