DESCRIPTION:<p><strong> </strong></p>\n<p><strong><strong>Goal of the Conference</strong></strong></p>\n<p>\n<p>This is the third of a biennially organized conference that brings together scholars and historians of humanities disciplines to draw the outlines for&nbsp\;a comparative history of the humanities. Although there exist histories of&nbsp\;single humanities disciplines\, a comparative history would satisfy a&nbsp\;long-felt need\, and fill a conspicuous gap in intellectual history.</p>\n<p><strong>Theme of the 2012 Conference</strong></p>\n<p>The theme of the meeting in 2012 will be "The Making of the Modern&nbsp\;Humanities"\, focusing on the period 1850-2000. Topics include all aspects&nbsp\;of the history of philology\, linguistics\, literary studies\, musicology\,&nbsp\;historiography\, art history and other humanities disciplines\, with an&nbsp\;emphasis on their mutual influences\, and their interaction with the other&nbsp\;sciences.</p>\n<p><strong>Conference Panels</strong></p>\n<p>In addition to the theme of this year&rsquo\;s meeting\, there will be four general&nbsp\;conference panels that cover all periods\, areas and disciplines:</p>\n<p>Panel I: Objectivity in the Humanities</p>\n<p>Panel II: Methodology in the Humanities</p>\n<p>Panel III: The Search for Patterns in the Humanities</p>\n<p>Panel IV: The Sciences and the Humanities</p>\n<p><strong>Keynote Speakers</strong></p>\n<p>Lorraine Daston (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science)</p>\n<p>John Joseph (University of Edinburgh)</p>\n<p>Glenn Most (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa)</p>\n<p>Jo Tollebeek (University of Leuven)</p>\n<p><strong>Abstract Submissions</strong></p>\n<p>Papers can be submitted to the general theme or to one of the panels.&nbsp\;Please indicate on your abstract whether you want your paper to be&nbsp\;considered for the general theme or for one of the panels or both.&nbsp\;Send your abstract of maximally 400 words to:&nbsp\;<a href="mailto:HistoryHumanities@gmail.com">HistoryHumanities@gmail.com</a></p>\n<p>Deadline for abstract submissions: 1 June 2012</p>\n<p>For more information\, see&nbsp\;<a href="http://makingofthehumanitiesiii.blogspot.com/"><u>http://makingofthehumanitiesiii.blogspot.com/</u></a></p>\n<p><strong>Organization</strong></p>\n<p>Huizinga Institute of Cultural History (Working Group History of the&nbsp\;Humanities)</p>\n<p>Royal Netherlands Institute in Rome</p>\n<p>Institute for Logic\, Language and Computation\, University of Amsterdam</p>\n</p>\n
