NINTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON NEW DIRECTIONS IN THE HUMANITIES

Universidad de Granada, Granada, Spain

8-11 June 2011

www.TheHumanities.com/Conference/

 

We are pleased to be holding the 2011 conference in Granada, Spain at the

Universidad de Granada. The Humanities Conference and its companion

journal provide spaces for dialogue and for the generation of new

knowledge about the nature of the humanities, building strongly on the

past traditions of the humanities whilst setting a renewed agenda for

their future.

 

Over the past eight years, the Humanities Conference has established a

reputation as a focal point for new ideas and new practices in humanities

research and teaching. The conference was held at the University of

California, Los Angeles, USA in 2010; in Beijing, China in 2009; at the

Fatih University, Istanbul, Turkey in 2008; at the American University of

Paris in 2007; at the University of Carthage in Tunis in 2006; at

Cambridge University in the UK in 2005; at the Monash University Centre

in Prato, Italy in 2004; and the University of the Aegean in Rhodes,

Greece in 2003.

 

In addition to plenary speakers, the conference will also include

numerous paper, workshop and colloquium presentations by practitioners,

teachers and researchers. We invite you to respond to the conference

Call-for-Papers. Presenters may choose to submit written papers for

publication in The International Journal of the Humanities. If you are

unable to attend the conference in person, virtual registrations are also

available, which allow you to submit a paper for refereeing and possible

publication in the journal.

 

Whether you are a virtual or in-person presenter at this conference, we

also encourage you to present on the Humanities YouTube Playlist. Please

select the Online Sessions link on the conference website for further

details. Additionally, please join our online conversation by subscribing

to our monthly email newsletter and subscribing to our Facebook, RSS, or

Twitter feeds at www.TheHumanities.com .

 

The deadline for the next round in the call for papers (a title and short

abstract) is 5 May 2011. Future deadlines will be announced on the

conference website after this date. Proposals are reviewed within two

weeks of submission. Full details of the conference, including an online

proposal submission form, may be found on the conference website at

www.TheHumanities.com/Conference/ . Submissions are also open for

Spanish language proposals and presentations.

 

We look forward to receiving your proposal and hope you will be able to

join us in Granada this June.
