[ecrea] CFP: Politics and Periodicals, Stockholm, 10-11 September 2015

POLITICS AND PERIODICALS
The 4th International Conference of the European Society for Periodical
Research (ESPRit), www.espr-it.eu <http://www.espr-it.eu/>
10-11 September 2015, The Nordic Museum, Stockholm, Sweden

We seek to bring together current research on the connections between
politics—most concretely, political or social movements—and individual
or groups of periodicals of any period.

Professor Brian Maidment will offer an extended workshop on reading
periodicals, politics and illustration between 1820 and 1860. Keynote
lectures will be given by Professor Núria Triana Toribio and Marianne
van Remoortel.

We welcome proposals that offer comparative cross-national perspectives
as well as more local studies of European periodicals which may include
but are not limited to

* Periodicals started by social or political movements
* Social or political movements invigorated by periodicals
* Periodicals devoted to political theory/political science
* Periodicals as party organs
* Politicians as editors/contributors
* Periodicals and political reputations
* Politicised conflict and controversy between periodicals

Please send proposals for 20-minute papers, panels of three or four
papers, round tables, one-hour workshops or other suitable sessions and
short biogs by 1 June 2015 to (esprit /at/ oru.se) <mailto:(esprit /at/ oru.se)>.
