LAST CALL!

		History of Sinology at the Western AOS

This is the final call for submissions for the History of Sinology
panel at the meeting of the Western Branch of the American Oriental
Society. The meeting will be held in Tempe, Arizona, on October 25-27,
1996.

Papers on the history of Sinology (the study of China) in all
countries and traditions other than China itself are welcome. Papers
on Chinese Sinologists (or schools of Sinology) active since the Opium
Wars or influenced by non-Chinese ideas are also welcome. It is
expected that most papers will concentrate on scholarship since 1500,
and on branches of the Humanities; but other topics will by all means
also be considered. Please do not hesitate to write for more
information, or to inquire about specific proposals.

The Western Branch meeting is the main China-related meeting of the
American Oriental Society. Be assured that you don't have to be
affiliated with a school in the Western U.S. to present a paper there.
You do have to join the AOS in order to take part, however.

All papers and abstracts must be in English, and must present
essentially new research.

Papers will be reviewed anonymously. All participants must submit a
standard AOS abstract of not more than 300 words for publication in
the Program. In addition, participants may submit a longer abstract
or the full paper, for the purposes of review.

Please send a title and abstracts or other materials to David Prager
Branner by 31 July, 1996.
