Dear Colleagues,
again we should be very obliged if those of you residing in Europe kindly
could bring the attached notice to the attention of prospective students.
It should be noted that, although abstracts have been sent from England,
Holland, Sweden, Norway and Germany, limited travel funds are still
available.
Thanks again,
with best regards
Joerg Plassen
SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS: KOREAN STUDIES GRADUATE STUDENT CONFERENCE, RUB
With the support of Korea Foundation, the Korean Studies Dept. of
Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum will host its first European graduate student
convention this summer.
Date: 23.6.2004, 12:00 - 24.6.2004, 17:00
Place: Internationaler Pavillion EuroEck, Spechtsweg 20, Bochum, Germany
Character of event
The convention will bring together graduate students at the pre-PhD level (as
well as students writing their MA theses) from European universities. Over a
duration of two days, the participants will present and discuss papers from
their respective fields of Korean studies, and exchange information on their
research projects.
The graduate students' convention will take place prior to an international
workshop under the title "From citation to adaptation: textual borrowings in
Korean religion and philosophy". (June 25-27) Participants will be admitted
for passive attendance in the ensuing workshop.
Objectives
The convention will afford young European scholars at the pre-PhD level an
opportunity to exchange information about their research projects and to
build ties among themselves. This will serve two main purposes: first, to
strengthen networks within the next generation of the European Korean Studies
community and to tie young scholars into this community; second, to provide
professional experience to young Korean Studies scholars, who will in many
cases present their research for the first time to an international audience.
Participation
The conference is open for PhD students in Korean Studies and other graduates
who have finished or are about to finish their MA theses (others may
participate passively). An informal eMail registration is required. Those who
wish to present a paper are requested to submit an abstract of no more than
400 words length (preferably also by eMail) . The deadline has been extended
until April 20th.
Travel
Bochum is situated in the central part of Western Germany, and can be
conveniently reached by rail, or by plane through Dusseldorf and Bonn/Cologne
(German low cost airlines!). Information concerning affordable accommodation
will be provided upon registration (no fees). Based on the abstracts, a
limited number of participants still may be awarded travel subsidiaries of
US$ 200.
