Calling for colloquium proposals for SAC 49 (2027)!
The editors of Studies in the Age of Chaucer invite proposals for the next colloquium, to be published in Volume 49 (2027). Every year, SAC publishes a colloquium that consists of 6-7 short essays (2,000-3,000 words each) on a dedicated topic. This year's colloquium will be “Psychoanalysis, Transgender Studies, and Medieval Studies,” edited by Ruth Evans and Jessica Rosenfeld; next year’s will be “Notes from Another England: Medieval Jews in the Age of Chaucer,” edited by Samantha Seal and Emily Steiner. The editor(s) of the colloquium decides on the topic, solicits essays, writes a short introductory essay for the collection, and helps to prepare the final text for publication. Once selected, the colloquium is pre-accepted for publication, but the editors of SAC will solicit at least one reader's report in order to provide feedback and advice to the authors. If you are interested in organizing SAC's next colloquium, please submit a proposal to Michelle Karnes and Misty Schieberle at studiesintheageofchaucer@gmail.com by April 15, 2025. The proposal should include a brief description of the colloquium topic and its timeliness as well as a list of people who have agreed to contribute to it, should it be accepted. The proposal should be one page, single-spaced. Anyone who submits a proposal will be notified of the editors’ decision by the end of April, 2025. For the chosen proposal, the full colloquium will need to be submitted to the editors a year later, by the end of April, 2026. After receiving the reader’s report(s), authors will then have until the end of 2026 to make any final revisions.
