Call for Papers – 2009 British Scholar Annual

This serves as a call for papers for the second annual British Scholar Conference. The
conference will be held in Austin, Texas on Friday February 20th and Saturday February
21st, 2009 on the University of Texas campus. The conference, which is organized by
the British Scholar Society and British Studies at the University of Texas, focuses on
British history from 1688 to the present. The purpose of the British Scholar Conference,
just like the forthcoming British Scholar journal, is to highlight the importance of British
history from varied perspectives. Established scholars, scholars at the beginning of
their careers, and graduate students are welcome to apply and present at the
conference.

We are proud to announce that the distinguished historian Linda Colley will serve as the
keynote speaker for the 2009 British Scholar Annual Conference. Linda Colley?s works
include: The Ordeal of Elizabeth Marsh: A Woman in World History and Britons:
Forging the Nation 1707-1837. Amongst her many accolades, Professor Colley
delivered the Prime Minister’s Millennium Lecture at 10 Downing Street in 1999.

The conference accepts both individual paper and complete panel submissions.
Submissions of individual papers should include an abstract of 150-300 words as well
as a few descriptive keywords. Panels are expected to consist of three to five papers
and should be submitted by the person willing to serve as both chair and respondent. In
addition to abstracts for each individual paper, the panel chair should also include a
brief 100-150 word introduction describing the panel’s main theme. The conference
does not discriminate between panels and individual paper submissions.
