http://home.vicnet.net.au/~medieval/

AEMA's sixth annual conference will be held from 30 September to 2
October 2009 at the Caulfield Campus of Monash University, Victoria.

Registration is now open and the registration form is available on
the web site, together with details of the invited speakers and
abstracts received to date.

From the Middle East to the North Atlantic, cultural differences
were woven into the new social fabric of the early medieval world.
Peoples, languages, religions, traditions and technologies were the
threads woven into the period's complex tapestry. The Australian
Early Medieval Association invites papers which explore the patterns
and intersections formed by these diverse threads.

Papers on any other aspect of early medieval research or scholarship
will also be accepted. A title and a 250 word abstract for papers of
twenty minutes in length should be submitted to the conference
convenor by June 30. Please include affiliation and contact details
with your abstract.

Presenters will be invited to publish their papers in the refereed
Journal of the Australian Early Medieval Association.
