Call for Papers: Sport, Health and the Body in the History of Education
History of Education Society annual conference
25 to 27 November 2011 Glasgow University Union Scotland, United Kingdom
Deadlines for abstracts: 30 June 2011 and 10 September 2011
Recent years have seen a rapid growth of interest in the history of
sport, and historians of education have participated fully in this
development. A burgeoning historiography of physical education in many
cultures and contexts, and broadly defined, has brought new breadth to
the history of education. At the same time, historians of education have
remained interested in health and the body, and significant work has
been carried out at the intersection of the histories of medicine,
education and sport. Recent articles in the Society’s journal, History
of Education, have considered a range of topics including school medical
inspection in the Netherlands, physical education in interwar Scotland,
sport in British universities, and gymnastics in nineteenth-century
Hungarian schools.
We hope that this conference will attract papers that range widely in
geographical and chronological scope, and in their subject matter.
Papers are welcomed on any aspect of the conference theme, interpreted
broadly.
To submit a paper for the conference, please send an email attachment in
MS-Word format, giving your name and institutional affiliation (if any),
together with the title of your paper and a 250-word abstract, to
Mark.Freeman@glasgow.ac.uk.
There are two deadlines for the submission of abstracts. Submissions
received by 30 June 2011 will be considered by the end of July, and
those received by 10 September 2011 will be considered by the end of the
month.
