2012 Byzantine Studies Conference

In 2012 our conference will be held from the 1st to the 4th of November at the Hellenic College and Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology in Brookline, Massachusetts. More information regarding the conference will be posted in the following month as it becomes available.

A message to BSANA members from the International Center of Medieval Art:

The ICMA, the association of medieval art historians that publishes the journal Gesta, is interested in the idea of sponsoring a session at the BSC in Boston this coming fall. Through the generosity of the Kress Foundation, the ICMA is able to provide some travel and hotel funds for the speakers at such a session. To qualify for such support, the proposal must first be approved by the ICMA Program and Lectures Committee (deadline March 1), and then by the Program Committee of the Byzantine Studies Conference (deadline March 30).

To submit a proposal for an organized session to the ICMA, send a title, an abstract, a CV of the organizer and the names of 4-5 speakers, to Elina Gertsman (Chair of the ICMA Programs and Lectures Committee) at exg152 at case.edu. The procedure for submitting a panel to the BSC is outlined on pp. 4-5 of the Call for Papers on the BSANA website, or contact Kostis Kourelis (Program Chair of the 2012 Byzantine Studies Conference) at kkoureli at gmail.com.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Nancy Sevcenko (Nsevcenko8 at gmail.com).
