Ridings of
Yorkshire Society Call for Papers - 16th-17th June 2023
The Ridings of
Yorkshire Society are back for 2023 with the annual ROYS conference. We are a
group dedicated to celebrating Yorkshire’s past, and its researchers, across a
variety of disciplines. We would like to invite researchers to submit abstracts
for papers to present at the conference which will take place on the 16th and
17th of June 2023. Our two day conference will be held at the Leeds City
Museum.
The conference
will give researchers of Yorkshire’s cultural past the opportunity to present
their work in a supportive and friendly environment. This year, as part of the
Preservative Party’s ‘Overlooked’ exhibition we are looking for papers to form
a special panel on the topic of ‘Overlooked’, in addition to our usual field of
anything Yorkshire related. We invite papers from a variety of disciplines
including but not limited to: English, History, Archaeology, and Film.
Paper
presentations will be 20 minutes.
Please send an
abstract of no more than 300 words for your proposed paper or a 100 word
abstract for your poster to ridingsofyorkshire@gmail.com; alongside a short biography of yourself. If you’d like more
information please get in touch.
Deadline for
submission 01 May 2023
As the event
is being held in the bottom floor of a museum please contact us for further
details regarding accessibility.
If you would
like to discuss a contribution to the ROYS conference that doesn’t take the
form of a paper or poster presentation, please email ridingsofyorksihre@gmail.com to discuss this further.
