Between the Disciplines: Doing Comparative Literature 
A Lecture Series
Organized by Michael Eskin, Marla Segol and Dan Sarel

The series aims at investigating the ways in which cross-disciplinary
perspectives can enrich scholarship in particular fields of study in 
the humanities and social sciences.  Comparative Literature offers 
itself here as a common ground for a comprehensive investigation of 
and a productive dialogue on problems traditionally examined within 
particular academic fields. Following the success of the first 
panel we invite submissions from all disciplines for the 
following:

Session 3 - "Conversion Narratives"

We invite papers dealing with the topic of "conversion narratives, 12th-16th
centuries." Papers may address narratives of conversion, using any 
approach. The keynote speaker for this panel will be Professor James 
Shapiro of Columbia University. 

Please send abstracts to:
