Call For Papers
The Illinois
Medieval Association and Medieval Association of the Midwest invites proposals
for papers on the theme
of "The Ends of Romance?". We are thinking about this topic in the broadest of
terms and invite proposals from history, music, art history, theology, English,
and language studies as well as any other areas of interest.
The romances have often been considered to be an access point into the cultures
of the medieval world, and we would be interested in examining why, how, and if
we should be having such critical discussions. As a second strand to the
conference we will also be examining penitential/ sacramental thinking and how
it relates to these themes in the middle ages.
Please fill out all areas of the form below.
