Call for Papers
The EAHMH welcomes submissions for its biennial meeting, to be held in
Utrecht, The Netherlands from 1-4 September 2011. In the city whose
name is closely linked to Rene Descartes, the Association welcomes
abstracts on the general theme 'Body and Mind in the History of
Medicine and Health'. This theme encompasses research in any area
where body and mind (and their interaction) were pivotal subjects in
the creation of concepts, practices and institutions in the lived
experience of health and disease. Papers addressing recent debates
concerning historiography and/or methodology are especially welcomed.
Papers dealing with the teaching of medical history in a concrete way,
as well as incorporating personal experiences, are also invited. It
is hoped that a special session may be organized on the teaching of
medical history. Submissions relating to all historical periods and
all regions are welcome, as are submissions from non-members.
Abstracts should not exceed one page and should include information
concerning the scientific question examined, the sources and approach
used and the (preliminary) results. Abstracts should contain a title
and the speaker's contact information (name, affiliation, address and
email address). In addition to single paper proposals, proposals for
sessions including three or four papers are also invited. All papers
in pre-arranged sessions will be judged according to their individual
merits. The Scientific Board of the EAHMH reserves the right to
rearrange sessions in the light of proposals received. Individual
paper presentations will be limited to 20 minutes, allowing for 10
minutes of discussion. Please submit all proposals for papers and
sessions to [log in to unmask] no later than 1 December
2010.
