The eighteenth annual Czech Studies Workshop, which will be held at Columbia University in New York City on April 20-21, 2018, welcomes proposals for papers on Czech and Slovak topics, broadly defined, in all disciplines. Since the year 2000, the Czech Studies Workshop has brought together scholars from the United States and abroad to explore Czech-themed topics from such diverse fields as anthropology, architecture and art history, economics, education, film, geography, history, Jewish studies, literature, music, philosophy, politics, religion, sociology, and theater. Work in progress is appropriate for our workshop format, and junior faculty and advanced graduate students are particularly encouraged to submit proposals.

 

Generous support from the Harriman Institute and the East Central European Center at Columbia University will provide local accommodation and meals for all participants and should allow for reimbursement of travel costs for most participants. Senior faculty accepted to present at the Workshop are encouraged to cover their airfare to and from New York with funds from their own travel and research budgets.

The deadline for submitting proposals is January 8, 2018. Applications should be submitted by email to CzechStudies2018@yahoo.com or by mail to
