The sponsorship includes small subventions for individual panelists. The funding is intended to defray some of the costs of society members presenting Tang-relevant research at the AAS Annual Meeting, including travel and registration expenses. Funding levels are determined during the review process. Scholars at any stage of their careers are eligible. Papers intended for future submission to the Tang Studies journal will receive priority. The application deadline is November 10, 2021.

Medieval Academy of America 2023 CFP
by Skaff, Jonathan 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Dear Members and Friends of the T’ang Studies Society, The Medieval Academy of America (MAA) actively seeks to bolster participation by non-Europeanists at the 2023 Annual Meeting<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.medie…>. There are a few co-sponsored sessions that will undoubtedly be of interest to scholars of Asia: a co-organized session with the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art, "Rethinking Global Medieval Art and Material Culture"; and another co-organized session with the American Council for Southern Asian Art, "The Mobile “Medieval” and Its Ramifications in Southern Asia." The deadline to submit<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.medie…> paper or session proposals is June 1 of this year, and while membership is required to present, it is not required to submit. The conference closing reception will be held at the National Museum of Asian Art. TSS board member Michelle C. Wang (Georgetown University) is on the MAA 2023 Program Committee and is happy to answer any questions that interested TSS members may have regarding the conference. The two hyperlinks are: https://www.medievalacademy.org/page/2023AnnualMeeting<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.medievalacademy.org…> And attached is the revised Conference Travel Grant document. I've added the following sentence to the first paragraph using track changes, highlighted in yellow (attached): "In order to raise the academic profile of Tang studies generally, applications to support travel to non-China or non-Asian studies conferences, in addition to China or Asian studies conferences, are equally welcome." Would it be possible to circulate the MAA 2023 CFP and perhaps also the Conference Travel Grant CFP within the next week or so? Thanks so much! All the best, Michelle Michelle C. Wang Associate Professor Department of Art and Art History Georgetown University 1221 36th Street NW, Walsh 102 Washington, DC 20057-1210 email: mcw57(a)georgetown.edu<mailto:mcw57@georgetown.edu> cell: (202) 813-0848 (text/call)
