Opens: May 31, 2008. Call for Proposals: American Studies Association of Turkey Conference—33rd Annual American Studies Conference, "Adapting America/America Adapted," October 810, 2008, Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey. This conference seeks to define a new agenda for adaptation studies, specifically, as a branch of American Studies that not only encompasses literature and visual media, but also a wide-range of subject areas including, but not limited to, history, anthropology, political science, philosophy, sociology, the performing arts, and cultural/ethnic studies. By looking at adaptation specifically in relation to the United States, we seek to investigate a variety of culturally and historically transformative strategies. We also seek to examine how the process of adaptation has been influenced by social, ideological and political factors both inside and outside the United States. While, traditionally, adaptation refers to the transformation of literary texts into different forms of media (e.g., films and television programs), the concept of adaptation can also be applied to other disciplines. Historians engage in process of negotiating or "adapting" various histories, or dialogues, when they tell the story of a nation; politicians adapt/adopt different philosophies, at different times, to suit their particular interests; and artists and musicians adapt/adopt a broad range of cultural signifiers when creating new works, conventions, and/or trends. The American Studies Association of Turkey invites proposals that consider adaptation, broadly conceived. We particularly encourage proposals which incorporate transdisciplinary explorations of adaptation, and welcome proposals from any field of study. Possible themes include, but are not limited to: processes/purposes of adaptation Adaptation and its motives (e.g., intentionality); adapting history for political reasons/historical reinvention; popular history: creation and reception; foreign policy and adaptation; audience and adaptation; trans or intercultural adaptation; cultural outcomes/products of adaptation (hybridity, creolization, metissage, mestizaje); racial adaptation ("passing"); musical adaptation (e.g., sampling in rap music); artistic adaptation; cross-cultural adaptation (e.g., African elements in American Jazz/Blues); lingual adaptation (e.g., ebonics); transformation/transmutation of ideas; (Re)creation/simulacra; mimicry, authenticity, and adaptation; forced adaptation (e.g., colonization, imperialism); Americanization, assimilation, acculturation; indigenous adaptation; identity and adaptation; the appeal/limits of adaptation; sex/gender adaptation (e.g., transvestitism, berdachism); conscious adaptation (e.g., metafiction); self-writing (e.g., transforming personal experiences into literature); biopics; pastiches/parodies/satire; literature/film adaptation; video/board games and popular songs based on classic films and/or literary texts; architectural adaptation; semiotics of adaptation; psychological/emotional adaptation; pedagogical applications of adaptation. The time allowance for all presentations is 20 minutes. An additional 10 minutes will be provided for discussion. Proposals for papers, panels, performances, exhibits, and other modes of creative expression should be sent to both Louis Mazzari (louis_mazzari@hotmail.com) and Tanfer Emin Tunc (asat2007@gmail.com) and should consist of a 250-300 word abstract in English, as well as a 1 2 paragraph biographical description for each participant. Deadline for submission of proposals: May 31, 2008. Notification for acceptance of proposals: August 15, 2008. Co-sponsored by the Embassy of the United States and the Literature Film Association.

Opens: June 15, 2008. Call for Papers: American Society for Ethnohistory 2008 Annual Meeting—To be held November 12-16, 2008, Hilton Hotel and Conference Centre, Eugene, Oregon. This year's conference theme focuses on coalitions and collaborations of various forms, both across and within racial, ethnic, tribal, state, and national boundaries, across and within professional and institutional settings, the likely as well as the unlikely, the productive and the vexed. Ethnohistory as a field began as a collaboration among lawyers and scholars of several disciplines, though such work was sometimes in coalition and sometimes in conflict with tribes during the Indian Claims Commission era in the United States. We invite participants to reflect on the past, present, and future of such coalitions, collaborations, and conflicts in ethnohistorical work, as they relate to legal claims, political efforts, museum representations, archaeological ethics, and crafting community ethnohistories. We encourage panels and papers that explore these complex histories across all periods and geographies. Panels and papers on other themes are also welcome. Individuals may submit proposals for a single paper, though complete panel submissions are preferred. The deadline for applications is June 15, 2008. Applicants will be notified of the status of their proposals by September 1, 2008. The necessary forms for submissions are available on the website of the American Society for Ethnohistory (ASE): http://www.ethnohistory.org/. It is not necessary to register for the conference in order to have a paper or panel accepted. Once papers and panels are accepted, however, participants must register as an ASE member. Preference is for submission of proposals by e-mail attachment to klopotek@uoregon.edu and jostler@uoregon.edu. For those submitting by regular mail, please provide three copies of the panel/paper abstracts, cover letter, and c.v. for each participant to Brian Klopotek and Jeff Ostler, c/o Dept. of History, University of Oregon, 1288 University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403-1288.

Opens: July 8, 2008 Closes: July 10, 2008. Justifying War: Propaganda, Politics and War in the Modern Age—In the modern age, propaganda has become synonymous with warfare, the battle for hearts and minds occupying a central position within military and civilian planning. This conference intends to promote a broader, comparative approach to the themes of justifying war and the "just war," drawing on social, political, military, cultural and economic studies from the Napoleonic Wars of the 19th century through to the current war in Iraq. While the conference is mainly historical in focus, there is naturally a contemporary resonance between the experience of past efforts to justify war and more recent activities, notably in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Further details about the conference including the programme and booking details can be found at http://www.justifyingwar.com/.

Opens: July 11, 2008 Closes: July 12, 2008. Britain's Wars of Religion, Revisited—Wilberforce Institute, Hull UK. In a lecture delivered to the Royal Historical Society in December 1983, John Morrill concluded with the observation that "The English civil war was not the first European revolution: it was the last of the wars of religion." Coming as it did during the seed time of "revisionism," Morrill's interpretation placed ideology back among the causes of what he now calls the war of the three kingdoms. This symposium aims to recognize the importance of Morrill's discussion of religion and politics, and to move it forward with reference to scholarship on political and religious thought that has emerged since 1983. While it will be partly concerned with the period of the 1640s, it also aims to draw out elements of the links and tensions between politics and religion that define the long seventeenth century. Central to the symposium will be a critical engagement with Morrill's original argument: in what ways is it still persuasive, and in what areas might it be revised?
