Call for Proposals for 2016

We’re very pleased to announce that the Oxford French Graduate Seminar will be re-launching next term, with the support of Professor Catriona Seth and Dr Jessica Goodman. These seminars are intended to provide graduates in French with the opportunity to present and discuss their work with other graduates in a relaxed environment. There will be three seminars per term, held on Tuesdays, 5-6.30pm, at All Souls’ College. Each session will feature two 20-minute papers, plus time for discussion. We welcome papers on any topic relating to French language, history, literature and culture. We are currently looking for graduate students who are interested in speaking in Hilary or Trinity term, 2016. The seminars will take place on the following dates:

Hilary Term (Spring)
Tuesday 9th February (4th Week)
Tuesday 23rd February (6th Week)
Tuesday 8th March (8th Week)

Trinity Term (Summer)
Tuesday 26th April (1st Week)
Tuesday 10th May (3rd Week
Tuesday 24th May (5th Week)

If you are interested in speaking, please send us an email by Friday 11th December, 2015 with an outline of what you propose to present (no need for a fixed abstract at this stage), and any date preferences you may have. Though we will aim to group together papers on related themes or periods, we will try to accommodate requests for particular dates.

We look forward to hearing from you!
