All students are, in<br \/>\naddition, invited to attend the whole conference free of registration charges. The symposium<br \/>\nprovides an opportunity for Ph.D. students to present their research in a less formal session<br \/>\nthan that of a full conference panel, and confront it to that of other European scholars.<br \/>\nDoctoral students may be at an early or more advanced stage of their research. The proposals<br \/>\nwill be commented upon by professors specializing in related fields of expertise. A general<br \/>\nmethodology lecture will be given during the workshop sessions. Candidates are invited to<br \/>\ngive their presentations in English within one of the two workshops offered: <\/p>\n<p>1) American<br \/>\nliterature, or <\/p>\n<p>2) \u00ab American civilization \u00bb (history, sociology, political science&#8230;). <\/p>\n<p>Proposals<br \/>\nrelevant to both fields (film studies, visual arts or music, for instance), or to another field<br \/>\n(such as translation studies or linguistics) can be sent to either of the co-chairs.<\/p>\n<p>APPLICATIONS<br \/>\n&#8211; Candidates must send a Curriculum Vitae and a 500-word abstract summarizing their<br \/>\ndissertation proposal plus an estimated budget of traveling expenses and funding otherwise<br \/>\navailable to them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Proposals in literature must be sent electronically to both<br \/>\nProfessor <a href=\"helene.aji@univ-lemans.fr\">Helene AJI<\/a> and Professor <a href=\"francois.specq@ens-lyon.fr\">Fran\u00e7ois SPECQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Proposals in civilization must be sent electronically to both<br \/>\nProfessor <a href=\"lucbenoit2@gmail.com\">Luc BENO\u00ceT \u00c0 LA GUILLAUME<\/a> and Professor <a href=\"naomi.wulf@univ-paris3.fr\">Naomi<br \/>\nWULF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<strong> Deadline for application: February 15, 2011.<\/strong> The symposium organizers will respond to<br \/>\nall applicants by March 15, 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Professors H\u00e9l\u00e8ne AJI, Luc BENO\u00ceT \u00c0 LA GUILLAUME, Fran\u00e7ois SPECQ, and Naomi WULF.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Call for presentations The French Association for American Studies invites doctoral students in American studies to take part in the Graduate Symposium (&#8220;Doctoriales&#8221;) specifically organized on their behalf during its annual conference.
