CFP: Australian Historical Association Biennial Conference, Perth, Western Australia 5-9 July 2010 Location: Australia Call for Papers Deadline: 2010-03-31 Date Submitted: 2009-10-25 The AHA is seeking submissions of * individual papers (20 minute presentation plus 10 minutes for questions) * panels of three related papers preferably with a nominated chair * ‘1000 words in a picture’ - short papers (10 minute presentation time plus 5 minutes for questions) that interpret an image, artefact or place as an historical document. Deadline for submission of abstracts is 31 March 2010 (Re)Viewing History ReViewing History invites historians to assess the state of History. What are the debates? What are the challenges? How are academic historians responding to challenges? The theme also invites discussion about popular interest in History as explored through films, literature and ‘reality’ documentaries. Do these modes challenge academic historians? There are many sub-themes and presenters are encouraged to consider their area of interest from the perspective of ReViewing History. As the conference coincides with NAIDOC Week, papers dealing with Indigenous issues are especially welcome. Sub-themes: Historical imagination History through literature and film History for children Teaching history in schools Biography Engagements with popular history Identities Memory as history Indigenous histories and Indigenous knowledge Colonial encounters Rural and agricultural history Place and history Heritage and history Historical archaeology Economic, business and industrial history Parochialism: Centre and periphery Transnational comparative history Historians and the law Emotions and emotional communities Intellectual disability and histories of insanity Bodies, sexuality, gender Health and medicine Histories of the family including adoption The AHA is for all historians, not just those whose research focus is Australian topics.
