CALLS FOR PAPERS

The International Journal for Digital and Public Humanities /magazén/  
is calling for abstracts for the 2023 volume on the concept of  
relations and how these relations are implemented, operationalised and  
analysed as interdependencies, links, and connections in practices of  
Digital and Public Humanities scholarship. Please submit your abstract  
UNTIL SEPTEMBER 30, 2022. For further information, you may have a look  
here[4].

The University of Kent will be hosting the European Society for  
Textual Scholarship’s 18th annual conference on APRIL 13-14, 2023. The  
conference on ‘Authorship, Identity, and Textual Scholarship’ will be  
held in person in Canterbury at the University of Kent campus and  
Canterbury Cathedral Archives and Library. Proposals are invited from  
researchers working on subjects ranging from antiquity to modern day  
and may be creative as well as critical or analytical contributions to  
panel and roundtable sessions. You can find further details on this  
website[5]. Remember that ALL PROPOSALS ARE DUE BY OCTOBER 1, 2022.

The Hungarian Journal of English and American Studies invites  
abstracts until OCTOBER 31, 2022, on the topic “The Digital

year from July 30 to August 3, 2023. The organisers invite  
contributions to the topic “‘And this gives life to thee’: Textual  
Reasons for Canonicity”. The topic also invites questions of  
methodology: how do we analyse texts to investigate the reasons why  
certain texts have been given canonical status? How can digital  
methods and work with larger corpora help come up with plausible  
results? The submission deadline for abstracts (300 words) is NOVEMBER  
30, 2022. Please send them to symposium2023 at connotations.de. For the  
full CfP, please visit the journal’s website[7].
