There is a long-established German tradition of research on Renaissance
art and culture. The new section Renaissance in the e-journal
kunsttexte.de wishes to build on this splendid foundation and to offer an
up-to-date forum for open-access publication, to support Renaissance
studies in both Universities and autonomous Research Centers by offering
an indipendent platform in an electronic medium. Texts will not be limited
only to art history, and all neigbouring disciplines will be welcomed as
contributors. Additionally, there is an up- to-the-minute rubric for
forthcoming lectures, conferences and calls for conference papers. Notices
about upcoming events are particularly welcome.

Neue Sektion Renaissance der Online-Fachzeitschrift kunsttexte.de
Studien zur Kunst und Kultur der Renaissance haben in Deutschland eine
lange Tradition. Die neue Sektion zur Renaissance der Fachzeitschrift
kunsttexte.de möchte diese Tradition untermauern und hierfür eine
zeitgemäße und zügige Form der Publikation open access bieten, die Studien
zur Renaissance zusätzlich zu den einschlägigen Forschungszentren auf
einer unabhängigen Plattform im online-Medium fördern kann. Das Spektrum
der hier publizierten Texte soll sich nicht ausschließlich auf die
Kunstgeschichte beschränken. Deswegen sind auch die Nachbardisziplinen
herzlich eingeladen, ihre Textbeiträge zu schicken. Zusätzlich informiert
eine aktuelle Rubrik über anstehende Vorträge, Konferenzen und Call for
papers. Veranstaltungshinweise werden gern entgegen genommen.

The SCSC is now accepting proposals for individual papers and complete sessions for its annual conference, to be held at the Hilton Bonaventure in Montreal, 14-17 October 2010. The SCSC, founded to promote scholarship on the early modern era (ca. 1450 – ca. 1660), actively encourages the participation of international scholars as well as the integration of younger colleagues into the academic community. We also welcome proposals for roundtables sponsored by scholarly societies that are affiliated with the SCSC.
In honor of our bilingual host city, proposals are encouraged in either English or French. Abstracts (up to 250 words in length) for papers and sessions may be submitted online at http://www.sixteenthcentury.org/conf_register.shtml
The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2010. Within four weeks after the deadline, the Program Committee will notify all those who submitted proposals.
About the SCSC ~
The Sixteenth Century Society and Conference (SCSC) promotes scholarship on the early modern era, broadly defined (ca. 1450 – ca. 1660). Providing opportunities for intellectual exchange among scholars of the period, the Society also actively encourages the integration of younger colleagues into the academic community. The geographical scope of the organization is as international as its membership. The SCSC welcomes scholars from all disciplines in early modern studies, including history, art history, religion, history of science, musicology, and literary and cultural studies in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. The Society holds one annual meeting in a different city each year, usually during the month of October, with an average of more than 700 participants. Please see links on this site for further information regarding the next Conference.
The SCSC is also closely associated with the Sixteenth Century Journal (SCJ) and Iter. Membership in the SCSC includes a subscription to the SCJ, discounted access to the Iter bibliographic databases, and the International Directory of Scholars–an annual worldwide directory and newsletter of scholars specializing in early modern studies. Their research and publications can be purchased for a nominal annual fee.

The sixteenth century was a period of transition for mythical animals. On the one hand, world exploration and scientific inquiry threw increasing doubt upon the existence of dragons, unicorns, mermaids, etc. But on the other hand, these same creatures flourished in heraldry, emblematics, poetry and novels, and sometimes even zoological tracts. What place did such imaginary creatures have in the sixteenth-century? Did their meaning and symbolism shift during this age?
We are seeking papers on this topic in order to set up a panel at the 2010 Sixteenth Century Conference, October 14-17 (http://www.sixteenthcentury.org/conference.shtml).
Please send abstracts to jfujitani@apu.edu by March 12, 2010.
Responsable : James Fujitani and Irina Iakounina
