>GEMCS is an organization formed for the study of
>culture from the Renaissance to the mid-nineteenth
>century. We are composed of people working in a wide
>range of disciplines, including but not limited to
>literature, history, art history, music, and film, and we
>welcome a wide variety of disciplinary approaches.
>
>This year's theme is "It's About Time," and we seek
>proposals dealing with social, economic, aesthetic, sexual,
>artistic, political, racial, and philosophical manifestations
>of time. We are particularly interested in work that
>shows not only the existence of such manifestations, but
>how they expressed themselves culturally, and what sorts
>of provisional answers emerged historically.
>
>As always, however, GEMCS is interested in all aspects
>of early modern culture.
>
>Some suggestions for topics:
>
>*Intimate spaces *Work Time/Leisure Time
>*Georgraphy *Circadian & other Rhythms
>*Bad timing *Being and Time
>*Time Pieces, Pieces of Time *Nations in Time
>*Industrial Time *Bodies over Time
>*Aesthetic Movements *Philosophical Time
>*Colonial Time *Generations
>*Technology and Time *Musical Beat
>*Aging *Theories of Development
>*Literary and Artistic Eras *Disability and Time
>
>In order to allow the greatest possible amount of discussion,
>presenters will be limited to ten minutes. GEMCS actively seeks
>alternative format panels; workshops and seminars on innovative
>pedagogy are especially invited, and we will gladly link
>information pertinent to your proposals from our website.
>

>name, complete mailing address, institutional affiliation, and
