Interdisciplinary Nineteenth-Century Studies (INCS) Conference, Durham UK, 6-9
July 2006

REVISED CFP

Due to a number of questions concerning the relation of music to the conference,
please note that this conference is entirely interdisciplinary, and not
specifically music-related. We welcome and encourage abstracts from all
disciplines. In light of this, a new deadline for the submission of abstracts
has been set at 30 November 2005. Notification of final decision on abstracts
will be made in December.

Call for Papers

Paper or panel proposals are invited on any aspect of creativity in the long

INCS is an association of scholars working in history, gender studies,
the arts, anthropology, science, philosophy, literature and other disciplines
devoted to the interdisciplinary exploration of nineteenth-century culture and
its relation to our contemporary world.
