Submission of proposals:
Please indicate the name of the panel that interests you and send a single page with both an abstract of less than 150 words and a brief curriculum vitae to both of the following: Susan Byrne (susan.byrne[at]yale.edu) and David A. Boruchoff (david.boruchoff[at]mcgill.ca). Proposals must be received by 25 May 2015.
Please note:
Presentations may be made in English (the primary language of the RSA) or in Spanish, and should bear in mind the interdisciplinary makeup of the RSA, as well as the need to be intelligible to scholars whose primary interests and expertise may lie outside the Spanish-speaking world.
The RSA permits participants to give only one paper at its annual meeting.
All presenters must be or become members of the RSA and must register for the meeting.
Submission of a proposal implies that one will subsequently participate in the meeting if selected. The RSA is considering sanctions against those who withdraw after being selected or fail to attend the meeting. For more information on the annual meeting, see the RSA website: www.rsa.org
