On Going: figuring journey, position and place

We are looking for papers which consider journeying, place and the way as tropes in ancient or modern texts, and we look especially for associations with Christian and Biblical themes.

Papers normally have a reading time of about 20 minutes, and are followed by a few minutes of discussion. They are offered for publication in The Glass and subsequently on the CLSG website.

The deadline for offering a paper is 31 May 2021. Send a provisional title and a few lines on how you will tackle your topic. Email Dr Roger Kojecký, secretary@clsg.org

With the pandemic continuing, the annual conference will likely take place by video conferencing, in which case papers will be distributed two weeks beforehand and discussed on the day. When sending your proposal state whether you envisage participating only on Zoom or, if it becomes possible to meet in Corpus Christi College, Oxford, you would be in Oxford on 6 November 2021.

The full form of the Call for Papers is at https://www.clsg.org/html/conference.html  . The conference page will be progressively updated in the period before the conference.
