CALL FOR PAPERS:
LITERATURE AND MUSIC IN THE STUDY OF CULTURE
The Musics and Cultures Research Group of the Open University is hosting a
Day Conference on the above theme to be held at Worcester College, Oxford,
UK on Saturday 11 May 2002.
Proposals are invited for papers or round-table discussions on any aspect
of this theme. The day follows similar Study Days in Reading in May 2000
and London in May 2001, and aims to have a broad spectrum of topics.
Whilst we welcome studies relating to literature and music of any era, we
intend to bias the day towards late nineteenth-century and twentieth-
century topics. Issues within the study of popular culture, ethnography,
or social sciences as they relate to literature and music are particularly
welcome, but our intention is to unite scholars in these disciplines with
those with backgrounds in history and criticism in the humanities.
The organisers of the conference are Robert Samuels and Delia da Sousa
Correa, and proposals (200 words) should be sent to either of them by 11
January 2002.
Further information is obtainable from the organisers or from the Research
Group web site (http://www.open.ac.uk/arts/music/muscult.htm).
