Call for papers: 31st Annual Slavic Forum, University of Chicago

[Lenore Grenoble]

The graduate students in the Department of Slavic Languages and
Literatures at the University of Chicago are pleased to announce our
upcoming graduate student conference, the 31st Annual Slavic
Forum, centered on post-WW II questions in Eastern European and
Slavic cultures. This year the conference will take place on Friday,
May 13th and Saturday, May 14th, 2011.  We invite abstracts for
individual papers, 20 minutes in length, from Master's or Ph.D.
students in Slavic studies and related fields, including linguistics,
literature, history, gender studies, art history, music, theater arts,
film, as well as any other disciplines related to the topic of the
conference. The conference will consist of formal panels, informal
roundtables, and a keynote lecture. Panels will be organized by the
Slavic Forum committee following the acceptance of papers to the
conference.

The deadline for all abstract proposals is January 31st, 2011. Please
send a brief abstract (300 words or less) and a short bio to
szawara at uchicago.edu and zmandusic at uchicago.edu. Examples and
references are not included in the word count. Please include your
name and affiliation at the top of the abstract but not in the body,
so that we may make them anonymous for refereeing and easily
identify them afterwards. All abstracts will be refereed and
participants will be notified by mid-March.
