Hello mailbase members in the Caribbean,
Sorry to interupt the fascinating Claude McKay
strand. It has prompted me to ask for contact names and addresses of people
living and working in the Caribbean who might be interested in presenting their
work to the 25th Society for Caribbean Studies conference in July 2001,
Nottingham University UK (details to follow) . We have a travel and conference
fee Bursary which has been set up to honour the memory of the late Bridget
Jones. Arts practitioners/scholars/postgraduates are eligible to apply. Full
details are on the SCS website at
http://www.scsonline.freeserve.co.uk/carib.htm
If any of you have contacts that I could
send flyers to in order to publicise the Bursary then I would be most grateful.
Or, of course, if any of you would like to apply. The deadline for proposals is
January 15th 2001.
Best wishes,
Sandra
