The North American Society for the Study of Romanticism (NASSR), in
association with the British Association for Romantic Studies (BARS),
announces a conference featuring transatlantic participation and
themes, to take place in New York City's cultural center. These
conference themes have been selected to represent a broad spectrum of
approaches to Romanticism. Our title is intended to encompass both the
diverse cultural sites of the field as well as its formal and
linguistic manifestations. To support these themes, we are planning a
wide array of theater performances, museum exhibits, musical concerts,
special tours, and other cultural events in New York City. We have
also secured a variety of housing options in the midtown Manhattan
area, including conference discounts at midtown hotels as well as
inexpensive dormitory rooms at the Lincoln Center campus of Fordham
University.
