Subject:
Symposium: Roadside Memorials
I would like to post a call for papers for
an international symposium
entitled
Roadside Memorials: a
multi-disciplinary approach.
Papers are invited that examine the
phenomenon of roadside
memorialisation from the perspective of any relevant
discipline.
Papers on related topics, especially other forms of
public
memorialisation also will be considered. Related papers may
include
topics from death studies, history, psychology, sociology,
roadside
studies, road safety, travel studies, studies in grief and
mourning
and studies in memorial culture.
It is intended that the most
relevant papers will be published as an
edited collection.
The
symposium will be held at the University of New England in
Armidale, New
South Wales, Australia on 25, 26 and 27 June 2004.
Abstracts of no more
than 300 words are invited by 31 July 2003. For
further information please
contact the organiser, Dr Jennifer Clark,
School of Classics, History and
Religion, University of New England,
