THe TExas medieval conference sounds delectable. It's too far for me,
alas--but may one hope for publication of proceedings, or posting of
them??

Subject: 16TH CENTURY STUDIES CONFERENCE

The Annual Sixteenth Century Studies Conference
will be held Oct. 22-23-24, 1992 in Atlanta, Georgia.

The 1993 Conference will be held in St. Louis in
December, 1993.

If you would like information about either conference,
contact R.V. Schnucker at SS18@NEMOMUS.BITNET. It is too
late to submit papers or sessions for 1992 conference, but
now is the time to start thinking about presentations for
1993.

However, all who are interested in "16th century" studies
are invited to attend. "16th century" is defined as
from the invention of the printing press to end of the
Thirty Years' War (ca. 1450-1640). The SCSC is inter-
disciplinary: art, literature, history, etc. of the
period.

Sixth International Conference on Symbolic and Logical Computing

October 15-16, 1992

Dakota State University, Madison, South Dakota


Computer programming for all kinds of non-numeric applications will
be the focus of presentations at the Sixth International Conference
on Symbolic and Logical Computing: ICEBOL6. The Conference will be
held on the campus of Dakota State University in rural Madison,
South Dakota, on October 15 and 16 -- often the most pleasant time
of year in South Dakota.

Ralph Griswold, creator of the Icon programming language and
SNOBOL4, will be a featured speaker at ICEBOL6. He will discuss
visualizing program execution in Icon, and he will present a clinic
on programming in Icon.

The Banquet Speaker is Robert B. K. Dewar -- the creator of
SPITBOL and Realia COBOL; he is currently working on a GNU/Ada
compiler.

Mark Olsen is the Keynote Speaker for the Conference. He is
the author of many articles, reviews, and papers on computing and
literary study. He is the Technical Review Editor of Computers and
the Humanities and the Assistant Director of the ARTFL Project at
the University of Chicago. He will discuss the theory and method
of computer application in socio-cultural history.

Among the Conference topics are parsing, conversion of text to
hypertext, parallel algorithms for text processing, machine
translation, natural-language query processing, artificial
intelligence and backtracking, and analysis of the language of
Victor Borge.

Proposals for presentations at ICEBOL6 have been accepted from
Australia, Bulgaria, England, Finland, France, India, Japan, The
Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, and throughout the United States.
