Nineteenth Century Studies Association's 22nd Annual Conference

March 7-9, 2002 in Savannah, Georgia.

For the theme of "Looking Backward, Looking Forward" we invite papers
exploring any aspect of nineteenth-century culture's obsession with
the past, the future, and its own place in history. Examples in the
visual arts abound of the power of the past during the "long"
nineteenth century, up to the advent of World War I. So too, the
power of the future enraptured many with the promise of unprecedented
creativity through new technologies, new means of seeing, and new
ways of understanding the universe.

Proposals of one page, single-spaced for twenty-minute paper
accompanied by a cover letter and a 1-2 page c.v.; proposals for a 1
1/2 hour panel should include a cover letter from the panel organizer
indicating format and issues to be discussed as well individual
proposals/c.v.s for each participant.

Mail proposals to Conference Program Director, Janice Simon, Lamar
Dodd School of Art, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602 or email
to <jsimonarches.uga.edu>. Deadline: postmarked by October 15, 2001.
