Postgraduate Conference in Classical and Near Eastern Studies
Queen's University Belfast, 25-26 March 2011

Queen’s University Belfast and the Royal Irish Academy’s Committee for Classical and Near Eastern Studies are hosting a postgraduate conference in Belfast on Friday March 25th and Saturday March 26th 2011. The conference, envisaged as a recurring Irish event, will give postgraduate students the opportunity to present ongoing work and discuss their research with peers in an informal, interdisciplinary setting.

We welcome contributions on any aspect of Greek, Roman and Near Eastern literature, history, religions and material culture. Papers will be grouped in thematic panels.

Interested students are invited to submit titles and abstracts (250-350 words) for a 25-minute research paper to Dr Martine Cuypers at cuypersm@tcd.ie by 21 January 2011. Programme decisions will be communicated by 1 February 2011.
