As a member of the Canadian Federation
for the Humanities and Social Sciences (CFHSS), the Canadian
Association of Slavists holds its annual conference in conjunction
with the Federation's Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences.
This event is organized in partnership with a host Canadian University
and usually takes place at the end of May / early June. Other learned
societies comprising the CFHSS also attend the congress, turning
the event into a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue
and networking. The congress routinely holds a Book Fair, featuring
many university presses and scholarly publishers.
This page provides the most recent Call
for Papers, as well as
a Panel Proposal form, an Individual
Paper Proposal form, a Roundtable Proposal form and a Graduate Student Activities Proposal form (all downloadable). Be careful to note the deadline!
Here you will also find an application form for a Travel
Grant (TBA) that covers in part travel costs to the congress from locations
in Canada. Most members of the CAS in good standing are eligible. The deadline for submitting the application - TBA.
This page also links to the current CAS Conference
Program (Map of Events [forthcoming]), as
well as the CFHSS
Congress Website. Participants
are encouraged to note the early registration deadline for the
congress. All participants (presenters and members of the
audience) must
