PRODUCING AND CONSUMING NATURES
American Society for Environmental History
Denver, Colorado March 20-23, 2002
CALL FOR PAPERS
The conference seeks to explore the various ways humans have historically
drawn nature into their lives -- through working and imagining, devouring
and debating, transforming and transporting it. We encourage papers on
the human history of nature as symbol as well as substance, in popular
culture and consumption as well as production and extraction. By
framing nature as plural, we also invite topics that engage a diversity of
views about what nature is or should be, within or across cultures.
The program committee STRONGLY ENCOURAGES proposals for complete panels
with two or three individual papers, a chair, and a commentator. Although
we also welcome individual paper proposals, such proposals are more
difficult to accommodate than full panels. The committee is seeking
proposals from scholars across a broad range of disciplines in
the humanities and social sciences. Interdisciplinary panels are
particularly encouraged.
Proposals must include FIVE copies of the following:
1) For panel proposals, provide a cover sheet(s) with the title of the
panel, a 250-word abstract for the panel, the full name and
affiliation of each participant, the titles of each paper, and the
name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address of the contact
person for the panel.
2) For each paper proposal (including those on an organized panel), submit
a 250-word abstract of the paper,
3) A short (two-page maximum) cv for each participant
The deadline for submission is June 1, 2001.
Please send all five copies to:
Christopher Sellers
Department of History
State University of New York at Stony Brook
Stony Brook, NY 11794.
