Deadline Sep 19 | CfP – The Ohio State University’s MRGSA: Graduate Student Symposium

The Ohio State University’s Medieval and Renaissance Graduate Student Association (MRGSA) is currently accepting proposals for our 8th annual Graduate Student Symposium: Modalities of Premodern Media [mrgsablog.wordpress.com], which will be held online from October 22 -23, 2021. We are excited to share that our keynote speaker will be Prof. Whitney Trettien [english.upenn.edu] from the University of Pennsylvania. The lecture will also serve as the annual MRGSA Lecture for The Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at OSU. In addition to the keynote lecture, we are going to hold a two-hour online workshop on codicology with Prof. Eric Johnson [library.osu.edu] who is the Associate Professor and Curator of Thompson Special Collections at The Ohio State University Libraries.

Abstracts of no more than 250 words and panel proposals should be sent to mrgsaosu@gmail.com by Sunday, September 19th, 2021. All submissions should include a separate document containing the title of the paper/ presentation/ project as well as a short bio (~100 words) that includes the author’s name, institutional affiliation, and contact information. Please note that applicants are restricted to one abstract per person with approximately a 20-minute oral presentation. We additionally encourage graduate students to submit alternative research projects in formats other than traditional conference papers, though we by no means prohibit traditional conference work.
