ICMA STAHL AND FORSYTH LECTURES
Call for nominations
due 8 July 2021
INVITE A STAR TO YOUR CAMPUS (Virtually)!
The International Center of Medieval Art (ICMA) seeks proposals for virtual programs under the Stahl and Forsyth Lecture Series to be held under the sponsorship of the organization in 2021-2022. Stahl Lectures are to be sponsored by colleges or universities in what might be termed the greater southwest, while Forsyth lectures, as a rule, take place in institutions located east of the Mississippi River, especially in what might be termed the greater Midwest. At this time, we have the opportunity to make the program available virtually to all ICMA members. Though we are also interested in proposals that include some in-person engagement between students and speakers if conditions and logistics allow.
Please suggest the name(s) of appropriate speakers and indicate your willingness to host the event at your institution. Please indicate if your college or university has the infrastructure for a Zoom (or other) webinar and the tech support to launch and troubleshoot a virtual event. Joint proposals—of two or more institutions—are welcome, as traditionally, lecturers are expected to speak at more than one venue. The hosts assume the responsibility for organizing the event, ideally working in conjunction with colleagues at other institutions; for publishing the details in advance on the ICMA website and ICMA News (the newsletter); and for reporting on the event after it is over. International exchange of scholarship is encouraged, though not required.
An honorarium will be covered by the ICMA.
For Stahl Lecture, please submit your CV and the CV of the proposed speaker, as well as a brief proposal/preliminary itinerary by clicking here
For Forsyth Lecture, please submit your CV and CV of the proposed speaker, as well as a brief proposal/preliminary itinerary by clicking here.
Please direct any inquiries to the Chair of the ICMA Programs & Lectures Committee: Bryan C. Keene, Riverside City College; email: bryan.keene@rcc.edu. The deadline for the nominations is 8 July 2021 for lectures to be planned for the fall of 2021 or the spring of 2022.
