 Annual Meeting, Knoxville, 2013: Call for Papers
Deadline for submission is 15 May 2012

The annual meeting of the Medieval Academy will be held from 4-6 April 2013, in downtown Knoxville, hosted by the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, the University of Tennessee Marco Institute for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, and the Sewanee Medieval Colloquium.



The Program Committee invites proposals for papers on all topics and in all disciplines and periods of medieval studies. Any member of the Medieval Academy may submit a paper proposal, excepting those who presented papers at the annual meetings of the Medieval Academy in 2011 and 2012. Others may submit proposals as well but must become members in order to present papers at the meeting. Special consideration can be given to individuals whose specialty would not normally involve membership in the Academy.



The complete Call for Papers with additional information, submission procedures, selections guidelines, and organizers is available here<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109352696358&s=6528&e=001usLsXn8AF_MAo3EFgoOgGX5tm8HYhJRTyn6GZkq73XEbK6cwUmQ9znutD10q5yxrIA5FyocMKukyodLfwYTy_t_n0iKpj_AtfaDvSgV1SuN6k6y1Hn1-WvzZikwm2_vFvcPgtrOvPHE9IjWzM9jYtw==>.
