[Please forgive cross-postings.]

Indiana University's VICTORIAN STUDIES PROGRAM and VICTORIAN STUDIES
present the Inaugural Conference of the North American Victorian Studies
Association, to be held October 17-19, 2003, Bloomington, Indiana.

THE NORTH AMERICAN VICTORIAN STUDIES ASSOCIATION (NAVSA) has been
established to provide a wide-ranging forum for the discussion of the
history, literature, art, and culture of the Victorian period. Our goal
will be to further the interests of Victorianists in the profession:
encouraging press and journal editors to participate in our annual
conferences; facilitating the networking of Victorianists across regional
and national borders; and initiating web-based archival projects to make
Victorian texts more easily accessible. Annual conferences will bring
together Victorian scholars from across the United States and Canada. The
inaugural conference will be held at Indiana University in Bloomington,
home of the journal Victorian Studies (with which NAVSA is affiliated).We
are accepting proposals for panels and for individual papers on all
subjects within the study of Victorian history, literature, art, and
culture.
