Meeting Description:

Theme: “Humour in all its forms: on screen, on the page, on stage, on air,
online …”

Given this is the silver anniversary of the AHSN conference, the theme has a
scope that enables a broad disciplinary engagement and recognition that humour
manifests in myriad of ways, a number of which are still unfolding. We are
keen to hear about humour in all its forms.


Call for Papers:

To submit a proposal for a paper, please send an abstract to
ahsnconference at gmail.com      

Abstracts will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. Proposals for panels of
three presentations on a specific topic are welcome. Proposals from research
students are particularly encouraged, with postgraduate scholarships available
to the first five to successfully complete the review process. 

The call for papers closes on 31 July 2018. Successful applicants will be
advised of review outcomes in order of submission and in all case by no later
than 15 October 2018. Please refer to the AHSN Guidelines for Presenters
below.

Presenters should subscribe to our free e-Newsletter, The Humour Studies
Digest to ensure they receive all communications regarding the conference.

For all other information on the AHSN and its activities, please visit

Guidelines for Presenters:

Topics and Subject Matter:

Papers at AHSN conferences typically come from a very wide range of
disciplines and should have a firm basis in Humour and/or Comedy Studies to
ensure that they are not disadvantaged in the review process.

Abstracts:

Abstracts are limited to 500 words only including references (if required). 
Please do not use foot- or end-notes, and retain a dated copy for your own
records. 

Length of Presentation:

Papers are allocated 20 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for
discussion; pre-organised panels of 3 presentations are allocated 90 minutes;
and practical workshops of 60 minutes are welcome. Please time your
presentation and allow time for questions. Questions from AHSN delegates will
come from a variety of disciplines and may give you valuable new perspectives
on your project.
