NASSR traditionally has a conference theme, which this year is scientia
and techne, by which we intend not only science and technology but also
the etymological senses of knowledge and craft. There is no set theme for
the NAVSA side of the conference: papers on all aspects of Victorian
studies will be accepted; however, we will be particularly interested in
papers that speak to the NASSR theme.
Proposals will be due February 15, 2006. NASSR proposals should be sent
to [log in to unmask] or to one of the special-session organizers listed
on the conference web site. NAVSA proposals should be sent to
[log in to unmask] or to one of the special-session organizers listed on
the conference web site. Papers rejected by special-session organizers
will be given a second vetting by the general conference committee.
Proposals should be two pages (500 words) with a one-page curriculum vitae
and should be submitted electronically as an attachment in .doc or .pdf
format. All participants must have paid 2006 dues to either NASSR or
NAVSA
Questions should be directed to Dino Franco Felluga:
