The Society for the Study of Egyptian Antiquities/Société pour l’Étude de l’Égypte Ancienne invites all doctoral level graduate students and senior scholars to submit proposals for papers to be given at this year’s Scholars’ Colloquium, to be held November 2nd and 4th, 2018 in Toronto. The deadline for submission is AUGUST 31st , 2018. Those who need early acceptance to apply for travel grants are urged to apply before this deadline, and to indicate the reason for needing early notification in their covering email. Proposals for Scholars’ Colloquium papers will be accepted from graduate students and senior scholars in the fields of Egyptology, Anthropology, Classics, Fine Arts, Archaeology, Nubian Studies and related fields on ANY topic connected with predynastic, pharaonic, Hellenistic, Roman or Coptic Egypt, but must represent an original contribution to the field. Presentations may be given in either English or French. Papers may not exceed 20 minutes in length. Since a limited number of proposals will be accepted, papers will be vetted by committee. Interested scholars should send a title and brief abstract of their proposed paper to the Scholars’ Colloquium Coordinators at scholarscolloquium@thessea.org or sseacolloquium@gmail.com. Please note that only proposals submitted in electronic format [i.e. via email and in the appropriate template] will be considered. Abstracts must not exceed 350 words in length. Acceptances of papers will be issued as soon as possible. Please contact this email for the template and more information. The SSEA/SÉÉA is also holding its 43rd Annual Symposium that weekend on the topic of Queens of ancient Egypt. Papers accepted for the Scholars' Colloquium are not limited to the topic of the symposium, and no preference will be given to proposals based on topic. Please also note that the SSEA is soliciting proposals for the Scholars’ Colloquium only. Beginning in 2018, the fee previously applied only to attendance at the Saturday Symposium will be applied to the whole weekend. This means that all participants in the Scholars’ Colloquium will be expected to pay the appropriate registration fee in advance.
