CfP: Joint Bulgarian-American Conference, 06/13-15/2008, Varna
Approximately every five years, the Bulgarian Studies Association and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences hosts a joint conference. The next of these, the 8th, will be held near Varna, Bulgaria, from June 13-15, 2008, in the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences House, located on the shores of the Black Sea.
The title of the conference will be "Bulgarian-American Dialogs."
We have received a number of proposals, but there is still space for a few more papers. Papers dealing with Bulgarian topics in any discipline are eligible for consideration. BSA members who would like to present a paper should send a one-page paper abstract and the title of your paper to Mari Firkatian, <firkatian@hartford.edu>, by February 20th, 2008.
Anyone who is not currently a BSA member but would like to submit a paper is welcome to do so, but must also join the BSA by sending $15 annual dues to Martha Forsyth, BSA Secretary-Treasurer, 51 Davis Ave., West Newton, MA 02465-1925, by April 1st. Payment (U.S. dollars ONLY) can be made by check or through PayPal to: <bulgarianstudiesassociation@verizon.net>
Our Bulgarian colleagues will sponsor (primarily by housing) a limited number of the attendees who will present papers. All airline travel and other expenses will be the responsibility of attendees.
Please see the conference website for details:
