British Society for the History of Science Annual Conference 2014
December 3, 2013 in CFP, News, Other Organisations, Related Events by bsls | Permalink
The BSHS Annual Conference will take place from Thursday 3 to Sunday 6 July 2014 at the University of St Andrews.
The Programme Committee now invites proposals for individual papers and for sessions from historians of science, technology and medicine, and from their colleagues in the wider scholarly community, on any theme, topic or period. Proposals are welcomed from researchers of all nationalities at all stages of their careers. Participation is in no way limited to members of the Society, although members will receive a discount on the registration fee. Offers of papers and sessions should be directed to bshs2014programme@bshs.org.uk, which is the address for all enquiries about the programme (see below for enquiries about local arrangements).
Proposals for individual papers should include an abstract of no more than 250 words, be comprehensible to a non-specialist audience, and avoid footnotes. Sessions, of either ninety minutes or two hours, should normally consist of three or four papers; they may also have a commentator. Proposals for alternative types of session, such as ‘round-tables’, are strongly encouraged. Please discuss your ideas for such alternative sessions well in advance of the submission deadline.
The deadline for proposals is 10 February 2014.
Further details on how to submit individual abstracts and session proposals will shortly be available on the BSHS website at http://www.bshs.org.uk/conferences/annual-conference/2014-StAndrews.
