CALL FOR PAPERS

The European Committee for Sports History

The 12-th Annual Conference
20-22 September 2007
Lorient (Bretagne, France)

Sport and the Arts: Construction and reality

The twelfth International
Congress of The European Committee for Sports
History (CESH) will be hosted by the faculty of
humanities, at University of Southern Brittany, FRANCE,
September 20-22, 2007.

Both established and emerging scholars are
invited to engage in an interdisciplinary reflection on the use of artistic
representations and/or performances as source material as well as on the
type of "reality" such artistic "constructions" mediate, in a critical,
diachronic, possibly dialectical and cross-community perspective.

There is again the annual competition for the best paper by a junior
scholar (aged 35 and under). See www.cesh.eu

Submissions are welcome from all relevant disciplines in any European
language.

Anyone wishing to submit a twenty minute paper for consideration is
invited to send a 200-word abstract to congress2007cesh.eu by
May, 31th 2007.

Further information about the topic, deadlines, price, location,
accommodation, etc may be obtained from http://www.univ-ubs.fr/CESH2007,
which is being updated daily (should there be any information you may not
be able to access, please do forward your questions to myself at the
above-mentioned address, and allow a few days for the reply).
