Speakers will be selected and contacted by the end of May 2023. The theme of this one-day conference is animals in London history. The theme is intentionally broad to allow for wide and varied interpretations of the idea. We are interested in any of the relationships between animals, broadly defined, and London in any period of its history. By ‘animals’ we are referring to any non-human creatures, which could include mythical and/or fictional animals providing they are closely linked to the history of London. The organisers of the conference are seeking proposals from local historians, academics, postgraduate students, and anyone with a scholarly interest in the history of London for engaging and accessible talks or presentations of around 20-25 minutes. The LAMAS Local History Conference attracts a keen ‘general interest’ audience as well as many members of local history societies from across London and its surrounding counties who have more specialised interests. Papers on any aspect of animals in London history are welcomed. Themes might include: • Service animals or working animals • Animals and entertainment • Animals and sport • Animal charities • Animals in the home • Animals and war • Mythical animals • Animals and commerce • Animals dead or alive • Famous and infamous animals • Animals in political contexts • Care, treatment and housing of animals • Transportation of animals • Animals as pets and/or companions Proposals comprising an abstract of no more than 500 words should be e-mailed to: Dr John Price, [log in to unmask] Alternatively, via post to the Department of History, Goldsmiths University of London, New Cross, London, SE14 6NW. ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the LOCAL-HISTORY list, click the following link: https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jiscmail.ac.uk%2Fcgi-bin%2FWA-JISC.exe%3FSUBED1%3DLOCAL-HISTORY%26A%3D1&data=05%7C01%7C%7Cdc6bcd4d93614a15409108db419c6161%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638175912118030420%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=41Ae3NZPozTv774TOYnauGYAMZqPQWW9FA5mnBSaVow%3D&reserved=0<https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=LOCAL-HISTORY&A=1> This message was issued to members of https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jiscmail.ac.uk%2FLOCAL-HISTORY&data=05%7C01%7C%7Cdc6bcd4d93614a15409108db419c6161%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638175912118030420%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ffRmslz6A3U09sF66vpUL%2Bl11cx8uasY1xRuNJFyn6U%3D&reserved=0<http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/LOCAL-HISTORY>, a mailing list hosted by https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jiscmail.ac.uk%2F&data=05%7C01%7C%7Cdc6bcd4d93614a15409108db419c6161%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638175912118030420%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=peAu4b7%2Bj5OtOLAX4kgXlsUxqSu8sJjN%2FwSLKv%2BZtzA%3D&reserved=0<http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/>, terms & conditions are available at https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jiscmail.ac.uk%2Fpolicyandsecurity%2F&data=05%7C01%7C%7Cdc6bcd4d93614a15409108db419c6161%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638175912118030420%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=mY9y3UceN1i2EH8uF%2BKn%2BgSQ6JnOD6%2FYD%2F9SOsSDUck%3D&reserved=0<https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/> Contact the list owner for assistance at [log in to unmask] For information about joining, leaving and suspending mail (eg during a holiday) see the list website at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=archives-nra
