LEST VII - Juniors Scholars' Conference

 


In conjunction with the conference, there will also be a day reserved for doctoral students and recent Ph.D.'s. The Junior Scholars Conference will take place on Wednesday October 28, 2009.

Junior scholars are invited to deliver papers of 20 minutes duration on the theme of the conference and to make a special effort to relate their insights to the way in which the idea of creation responds to or is influenced by contemporary challenges. The working language of the conference is English but papers can be presented in French, German and Spanish as well.

Proposals are to be made in the form of an outline or abstract of approximately 250 words. Scholars who are planning to present in French, German or Spanish should also send in an abstract in English. Proposals will be evaluated in March 2009 and July 2009. Deadlines are therefore set for March 15, 2009 and June 30, 2009 respectively. Please include also your academic profile and bibliographic references to recent articles or books. Authors of accepted proposals will be duly notified in the month immediately following their evaluation.

Please send all correspondence with regard to proposals to Dr. Frederiek Depoortere.
