Let me call your attention to a great little conference on New Jersey history:
Held every other year, the New Jersey Forum provides an opportunity for college and university faculty, teachers, graduate students, independent scholars, museum professionals, historical society members, and all others with an interest in New Jersey studies to present new research to their peers. This interdisciplinary conference defines New Jersey studies broadly, covering not only traditional state history, but also archaeology, geography, fine and decorative arts, material culture, the humanities, literature, ethnic studies, the history of science and technology, labor and industry, public policy, religious history, and popular culture-all with special emphasis on new scholars and scholarship. If you would like to present a research paper at the Forum, email a proposal to the following address:
peter.mickulas@gmail.com
This proposal must include: 1) the title of the paper 2) contact information (address, telephone, e-mail) 3) a one-paragraph bio 4) an abstract of no more than 500 words 5) any audio-visual requirements for presenting your paper You can also suggest a panel with two papers. Please include the information requested above for each proposed panelist.
All information must be provided by e-mail. The deadline for receipt of proposals is December 15, 2009. All proposals will be referred to an advisory committee, which will select the papers to be presented at the Forum.
Notifications of acceptance will be sent in February 2010. Accepted papers may be considered for publication in the Commission-sponsored journal, New Jersey History. The New Jersey Forum is sponsored by the three history-related agencies of the New Jersey Department of State: the Historical Commission, the State Archives, and the State Museum.
