CfP: Whither Women Religious: Analyzing the Past, Studying the Present, Imagining the Future

Whither Women Religious: Analyzing the Past, Studying the Present, Imagining the Future
The Tenth Triennial Conference on the History of Women Religious

Santa Clara University, Santa Clara California
June 26-29 2016

The Program Committee invites proposals for papers and panels that address the conference theme: Whither Women Religious: Analyzing the Past, Studying the Present, Imagining the Future from academics and independent scholars drawn from fields of, but not limited to, history, sociology, literature, anthropology, theology, gender studies, visual and creative arts, material culture, religious studies and communication. Papers should explore questions related to the history of women religious, or should analyze how studies of the past inform current debates and the planning of future endeavors.

A new feature of the 2016 Conference Program is “1000 words in a Picture.’” These short papers of 1000 words analyze a single image, (such as a picture, an artifact or a document). These papers will be presented in a special plenary session during which each author will presentation the image in 10 minutes, followed by a 5 minute question period.

Proposals for “1000 words in a picture,” individual papers or multiple paper panels should include, for each paper, a one-page abstract (title and 250 word abstract) and a one-page curriculum vitae for each author. Submissions should be made electronically by 1 June 2015 through:
