Monsters: The Experimental Association for the Research of
Cryptozoology through Scholarly Theory and Practical Application
(MEARCSTAPA) invites submissions for either of its sessions at the
46th International Medieval Congress.
Panel 1: Outlaws, Outliers, and Outsiders
This panel explores the intersection of myth and reality, of
boundaries and borders between this world, other worlds and their
inhabitants. From tales of outlaws exiled by law to those who lurk on
the boundaries of "civilization," this panel welcomes papers on all
manner of outsiders in any genre.
Panel 2: Prehuman, Nonhuman, Posthuman: Monsters in the Middle Ages
This panel explores the concept of monstrosity in the Middle Ages, as
well as connections between understandings of the monstrous in the
medieval and all subsequent periods. Submissions are welcome on all
aspects of the monstrous in all fields of study from the medieval to
modern medievalism.
Submissions (abstracts of 300 words and PIFs, available on the
Congress website) should be sent no later than 15 September 2010 to
the contact information below.
