Breaking Boundaries
Berkshire Conference on the History of Women
June 4-6, 1999
University of Rochester

Submission deadline: January 31, 1998


The eleventh Berkshire Conference on the History of Women, "Breaking
Boundaries," will be held on June 4-6, 1999 at the University of Rochester,
New York, USA. The Program Committee welcomes proposals that transcend
regional, disciplinary, and cultural boundaries; that break traditional
boundaries of academic presentation and explore innovative ways of
presenting material and involving the audience. The Committee also seeks
proposals that discuss pedagogy, public history, collaborative research,
and feminist activism. The Committee encourages international participation
and panels that represent a diversity of participants. We prefer proposals
for complete panels (normally two papers, one commentator, and a chair) or
roundtables, especially those with cross-national and comparative themes.
Individual papers will also be considered. The Program Committee may
rearrange panels; submission of a proposal will be taken as agreement with
this proviso. No one may appear more than once on the program in any
capacity. Please submit proposals, in triplicate, postmarked by January 31,
1998, in a single packet marked "ATTN: Berkshire Conference"  to the
appropriate co-chair. Each proposal must include: 1) panel title or
roundtable theme; 2) title and one-page abstract of each paper or
presentation; 3) name and address of contact person; 4) one-page vita for
each participant, including current address, telephone number, fax number,
and e-mail address; 5) a self-addressed, stamped postcard for return upon
receipt of packet. Send proposals on U.S. and Canadian topics to Nell
Painer, Department of History, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ
08544-1017; on European topics to Sharon Strocchia, Department of History,
Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30322; on Africa, Latin America, Asia, the
Pacific, and all comparative topics (U.S./non-U.S.),  to Teresa Meade,
Department of History, Union College, Schenectady, NY  12308-2365. For more
