Dear Colleague,

We are pleased to share with you the Call for Papers for the Twenty-first International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities, to be hosted by Sorbonne Université, Paris, France, 28-30 June 2023.

The New Directions in the Humanities Research Network is brought together by a common interest in established traditions in the humanities while at the same time developing innovative practices and setting a renewed agenda for their future. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.

Program

Each year the International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities attracts participants from all over the world. Our Program Development team draws on this diversity to craft a rich and distinctive conference experience, with session types and programming explicitly designed to make the most of both online and place-based social knowledge processes.

Special Focus

Literary Landscapes:
Forms of Knowledge in the Humanities

In addition to the annual special focus, we invite proposals addressing one of the following themes.

Plenary Speakers

In-Person + Online

You can present and/or attend as an In-Person or Online Only delegate. Our model seeks to transcend physical boundaries by offering a platform to extend in-person conference content online while ensuring online-only delegates are afforded participatory and experiential spaces within the platform. At the same time, the model offers participants a legacy resource to which they can return in the CGScholar Event microsite, with access to a social space in our Community application where fellow participants can keep connected long after the conference ends.

With this step-by-step guide, you can get an insight into the new phases pre/during/post-conference of the conference experience.

Submit proposals by March 28.
