Istanbul Sehir University and the World History Association proudly announce a symposium focusing on the world-historical significance of Byzantine and Ottoman civilizations, 330-1922. The symposium will consist of 30 papers by Turkish and international participants, plus a keynote address and several other plenary sessions. The official languages of the symposium are English and Turkish.
Panel and paper proposals dealing with Byzantine and/or Ottoman civilizations in the context of world history and across all relevant disciplines are invited and should be submitted electronically no later than 1 October 2009 to the World History Association’s dedicated web page, which will be up by 15 July 2009. Delivery time for each paper must not exceed 20 minutes. Panels, each of which is two hours in length, should consist of a chair, four paper presenters, and a discussant. A committee will review all proposals and make its decision regarding acceptances by 15 November 2009. Criteria for acceptance include a proposal’s world-historical scope, its originality, and its depth of scholarship.
