The organisers of the 2011 York Cultural History Conference on Conspiracies Real and Imagined welcome proposals for papers.
The conference aims to consider conspiracy across historical period and geographical borders, seeking to provoke debate about the role of the imagine, of the non-event, in the course of historical action. Consideration of actual conspiracies will not be neglected, and papers considering the relationship between real and imagined conspiracies, discussing actual conspiratorial action, and how it is justified, will be welcomed.
Confirmed speakers include Keith Jeffrey (Queen's University, Belfast), Ritchie Robertson (St John's College, Oxford), Peter Knight (University of Manchester) and John Cooper (University of York).
A fuller call for papers can be found here. Please contact Adam Morton (aem502@york.ac.uk) for further details.
