We are pleased to announce the 2020 Toronto Old English Colloquium hosted by the Centre for Medieval Studies and the Department of English at the University of Toronto. Each year, the colloquium brings together graduate students and seasoned scholars for a day dedicated to Old English scholarship. We invite proposals from graduate students for papers on any area of interest related to Old English, and are seeking a broad range of topics including - but not limited to - literature, law, history, art history, medicine, science, lexicography, palaeography, and any other relevant areas. The length of a paper presentation should be 20 minutes. We may be able to provide some funding to support accommodation and/or student travel.
Deadline: January 6th, 2020
Proposals should include a 300-word abstract, a one-page CV, and full contact information. Please submit queries or proposals for papers to Professor Fabienne Michelet (fabienne.michelet@utoronto.ca) and Shirley Kinney (shirley.kinney@mail.utoronto.ca).
