INVITE A STAR TO YOUR CAMPUS!

The International Center of Medieval Art (ICMA) seeks proposals for the Stahl and Forsyth Lectures to be held under the sponsorship of the organization in 2019-2020. Stahl Lectures are to be held in what might be termed the greater southwest, while Forsyth lectures, as a rule, take place in the institutions located east of the Mississippi River, especially in what might be termed the greater Midwest.

Please suggest the name(s) of appropriate speakers and indicate your willingness to host the event at your institution. Joint proposals are welcome, as lecturers are expected to speak at more than one institution. The hosts assume the responsibility for organizing and advertising the event, ideally working in conjunction with colleagues at other institutions; for reserving a suitable venue; for organizing a reception if desired; for publishing the details in advance on the ICMA website and Newsletter; and for reporting on the event after it is over. International exchange of scholarship is encouraged, though not required.

Travel costs and the honorarium will be covered by the ICMA. Travel plans for the speaker will be handled by Ryan Frisinger, Executive Director of the ICMA.

For Stahl Lecture, please submit your CV and CV of the proposed speaker, as well as a brief proposal/preliminary itinerary by clicking here.

For Forsyth Lecture, please submit your CV and CV of the proposed speaker, as well as a brief proposal/preliminary itinerary by clicking here.

Please direct any inquiries to the Chair of the Programs Committee: Beth Williamson, University of Bristol, UK; email: beth.williamson@bristol.ac.uk. The deadline for the nominations is 31 May 2019 for lectures to be planned for the late fall of 2019 or the spring of 2020.
