Darwinism after Darwin: New historical perspectives
University of Leeds, 3-5 September, 2007
Revised CFP deadline: midnight, Sunday 25th March
There's still time to submit an abstract for the upcoming conference,
Darwinism after Darwin: the call for papers deadline is midnight on Sunday
25th March, giving as many of you as possible the chance to participate in
what is shaping up to be a stimulating and highly enjoyable meeting.
Events already scheduled include a keynote address from Peter Bowler,
reflecting on his evolutionary work; Richard Weikart, author of _From
Darwin to Hitler_, meeting his critics; John van Wyhe on how the internet
can refresh historical perspectives; round-table discussions on the future
directions in the study of the history of evolution; and an outing to
nearby Ilkley Moor.
So if your work engages with evolutionary theories and ideas, experiments
and practices, books and images, or bodies and displays, from the late
nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries, then why not join us?
We'll be meeting in the pleasant surroundings of Devonshire Hall, a short
walk from Headingley and the University and ten minutes by bus from the
city centre.
Submissions are welcome from researchers at all stages of their career for
both individual papers and themed panels.
