We hope many if not all of these sessions can foster some real dialogue between
musicologists and scholars in other areas, so we encourage specialists in fields
other than Music to submit proposals. Please keep in mind as well that we
intend these session titles mostly as "hooks" on which a multitude of proposals
can be placed rather than limitations, so send us your best work (as the editors
of JAMS are fond of saying), even if it doesn't precisely seem to fit one of
these topics--we may be able to make it work anyway, and we'll try to find a
place for as many good proposals as we can.
Abstracts should be sent by 13 September to Cathy Ann Elias, program committee
chair, at the address below. Electronic submissions are welcome. Please write
in the subject part of the e-mail the following: KZOO 2010 (Please send
submissions to musicology.kzoo at gmail.com)
You'll also need to complete and submit the “Participant Information Form” from
the conference website, available at
http://www.wmich.edu/medieval/congress/submissions.html#Paper. This is very
important, not only because it is your only chance to make A-V requests, but
because it is required by the Medieval Institute. Please note that the form
appears at the bottom of the page. Be aware that this is a PDF document; if you
don't have Adobe Acrobat (the writer, not just the reader) on your computer, you
cannot save a completed form, so you'll have to print it and send it via
snail-mail or fax.
If you have any questions, please contact Cathy Ann Elias. We look forward to
seeing you in Kalamazoo next May.
