We would like to remind the followers of our
blog of the Student Research Colloquium that is organized right before the
American Society for Legal History’s annual meeting, this year in Boston:
The American Society for Legal History will
host a Student Research Colloquium (SRC) on Wednesday, November 20, and
Thursday, November 21, 2019, immediately preceding the ASLH’s annual
meeting in Boston, Massachusetts. The SRC annually enables eight Ph.D.
students and law students to discuss their in-progress dissertations and
articles with distinguished ASLH-affiliated scholars.
The SRC’s target audience includes
early-post-coursework graduate students and historically minded law
students. The colloquium seeks to introduce such students to legal
history, to each other, and to the legal-historical scholarly community.
Students working in all chronological periods, including ancient and medieval
history, and all geographical fields are encouraged to apply, as are students
who have not yet received any formal training in legal history.
Applicants who have not yet had an opportunity to present their work to the
ASLH are particularly encouraged to apply. A student may be on the
program for the annual meeting and participate in the SRC in the same year.
Each participating student will pre-circulate a
twenty-page, double-spaced, footnoted paper to the entire group. The
group will discuss these papers at the colloquium, under the guidance of two
faculty directors. The ASLH will provide at least partial and, in most cases,
total reimbursement for travel, hotel, and conference-registration costs.
The application deadline is July 15,
2019. Applicants should
electronically submit:
- a
cover letter describing, among other things, how far along you are and how
many years remain in your course of study;
- a CV;
- a
two-page, single-spaced “research statement” that begins with a title and
proceeds to describe the in-progress research project that you propose to
present at the colloquium; and
- a
letter of recommendation from a faculty member, sent separately from, or
together with, the other materials.
Organizers will notify all applicants of their
decisions by August 15, 2019. Please direct questions and applications to
John Wertheimer at: srcproposals@aslh.net.
