[Maria Hamilton]

On November 6 -9 the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Centre for Hellenic Studies at Simon Fraser University and the Byzantine Studies Association of North America will welcome scholars and interested laypersons to the 40th Byzantine Studies Conference, held at the university's Vancouver campus. 

The Byzantine Studies Conference was founded in 1975 and is the premier venue in North America for the presentation and discussion of papers embodying current research on all aspects of Byzantine history and culture. Some 70 papers will be presented and discussed in Vancouver this year in a relaxed but professional atmosphere. 

In addition to the paper sessions, three receptions, and the annual business lunch of the organization the 40th BSC will host a Keynote Address by professor John F. Haldon of Pricenton University titled: “A shifting ‘environment’? Climate, land and politics from late Rome to middle Byzantium.”
