Memory and Commemoration
The Australian and New Zealand Association for Medieval and Early Modern
Studies (ANZAMEMS) will hold its fourth conference from 5-8 February 2003
at The University of Melbourne, Australia. The conference theme is 'Memory
and Commemoration'. We hope to attract papers that reflect on such topics
as forms of commemoration and ways of remembering across time and space;
on modern creation and recollection of medieval and early modern pasts; on
historical, literary and artistic representations of memory; on the
material and ritual culture of commemorating the living and dead, past
events and mystic occurrences; on genealogies, tradition and familial
memory, etc.
The programming committee invites proposals (150 words) for 20 minute
papers. Please send your title, abstract and a preliminary indication of
any audio-visual requirements to the convenor, Megan Cassidy-Welch (email:

We also invite members of the society to put together their own panels.
Proposals for such panels, including a title and a call for papers (150
words), should reach the committee by Friday 26 May, 2002. See the
conference website (http://www.history.unimelb.edu.au/anzamems) for
