Please find attached the CFP for "Ecology and Religion in 19th-Century Studies" (Sept. 18-21, 2019). This flightless, multi-site conference invites interdisciplinary attention to confluences between environmental and religious perspectives and practices in the long Anglophone nineteenth century (1780-1900). Since that century, anthropogenic climate change has rapidly accelerated, and in response to this legacy we will avoid air travel by digitally connecting events at several conference sites in the United States and the United Kingdom. In addition, this method of networking, by lowering barriers of cost and transportation, promises to enable a more diverse and inclusive range of participation than is often possible at international conferences. Two main digitally linked locations, or "hubs," will welcome proposals for panels and papers: the Armstrong Browning Library at Baylor University in the United States, and Lancaster University in the United Kingdom. Activities at the two hubs will be complemented by special digitally connected sessions at two "satellite" locations in the United States: the University of Washington and Georgetown University. Three "key-note" events will be streamed between all four sites. Physical participation will be restricted to those able to reach the hubs and satellites by car or public transport (within 400-500 miles). For those who are beyond the permitted range for travel or who face other logistical obstacles, we will consider requests for digital participation on panels hosted at the Armstrong Browning Library. Deadline for paper and panel proposals: 17.00 (Central Standard Time, North America) Friday 15 March, 2019 Email proposals and/or questions to: [log in to unmask] Website: http://sites.baylor.edu/ecologyreligion/call-for-papers/ ********************************************************* British Association for Romantic Studies http://www.bars.ac.uk<http://www.bars.ac.uk/> To advertise Romantic literature conferences, publications, jobs, or other events that the BARS members would be interested in, please contact Neil Ramsey <[log in to unmask]> Also use this address to register any change in your e-mail address, or to be removed from the list.
