Histfest 2010

Now in its fifteenth year, Histfest provides an ideal forum for presenting postgraduate research at any stage of progress to a supportive and constructive audience. The conference welcomes papers from any field of historical research and related disciplines. This year we are also inviting submissions of poster displays. There is no overarching theme but topics of research might fall within one of the following categories: power, conflict, religion; society, culture, environment; identity, memory, gender.

Proposals, including a title, abstract (250 words for papers no longer than 20 minutes) and brief biographical statement (100 words) should be submitted by Friday 19 March to George Lincoln (g.lincoln@lancaster.ac.uk) or James Bowen (j.bowen@lancaster.ac.uk). Alternatively, post your submission to Histfest, Department of History, Lancaster University, Lancaster, LA1 4YG.
