Call for Papers: Fourth Conference of the Early Medieval China Group
March 27, 2021
The fourth Conference of the Early Medieval China Group (EMCG) will be held remotely
on March, 27, 2021, conducted via Zoom and hosted by the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Members and friends of the Group as well as all researchers in the various disciplines of
early medieval China studies are cordially invited to attend the conference and to present
their research. Applicants to last year’s conference, which unfortunately had to be cancelled
because of the pandemic, are welcome to resubmit their proposal or submit a new one.
Following the establishment of the Graduate Student Award of the Early Medieval China
Group, we particularly encourage graduate students to submit proposals.
Proposals on all topics that pertain to early medieval China (220–589) are welcome.
Please submit an abstract of ca. 250 words to antje.richter@colorado.edu by February 5, 2021. In
your proposal, please include the title of your paper, institutional affiliation, mailing address,
and email address. Submissions will be evaluated by the Group’s board members. Successful
applicants will be notified within two weeks, and the final program will be sent by the end
of February. The Group’s annual business meeting will take place on the day of the
conference as well. If you have any questions about the conference, please direct them to
antje.richter@colorado.edu.
While everyone is welcome to attend the conference, all presenters should be or become
members of the Early Medieval China Group. If you would like to become a member, please
go to the membership page.
