Re: 9th ICCEES World Congress: Call for papers
From

Body
Dear Brian,
Thank you very much for your correction and I am sorry that I overlooked
the mistake in the text prepared by our secretary.
To reply to your question, proposed papers don't have to focus on VN's
Russian works, and papers on English works are quite acceptable, given that,
as you suggest, papers are conscious of Nabokov's Russianness. Our
screening policy for paper proposals is very flexible and we encourage
diversity rather than rigidness. This is going to be a huge congress; we
expect to have 1000-1500 participants altogether in various disciplines
related to Slavic and Eurasian studies.
Please note, however, the organization of the ICCEES congress is
basically panel-based (like the ASEEES) and you are encouraged to organize a
panel, usually consisting of a chair, three papers, and a discussant
(although individual papers are also acceptable).

Subject: Re: [NABOKV-L] 9th ICCEES World Congress: Call for papers
Small correction from a little nation that does not like to be overlooked:
ANZSA is not just "Australia" but Australia and New Zealand.
Do think about contributing: Japan is wonderfully hospitable and, as those
who were at the Kyoto Nabokov conference know, a great place to have a
conference and to meet the many talented and enthusiastic Japanese
Nabokovians.
Small question for Mitsu: would papers on Nabokov have to focus on his
Russian works, or would papers on his English works also be acceptable,
given that Nabokov was Russian and it always shows in his work?

Dear Nabokovians,
The 9th ICCEES World Congress will be held in Makuhari, Japan, on August
3-8, 2015.
Nabokov-related topics are welcome. Please consider participating!
Panesl, papers, and roundtable proposals for this congress are being
accepted at <http://src-h.slav.hokudai.ac.jp/iccees2015/index.html>
http://src-h.slav.hokudai.ac.jp/iccees2015/index.html The deadline for
submissions is May 31, 2014.
The International Council for Central and East European Studies (ICCEES) is
the global alliance of national associations of Slavic and Eurasian studies,
composed of the ASEEES (United States), CAS (Canada), BASEES (Britain), DGO
(Germany), FAREES (Finland), ANZSA (Australia), CAREECAS (China), JCREES
(Japan), KASS (Korea), and MACEES (Mongolia), and other respectable
organizations. The ICCEES was created in 1974 and holds a world congress
once every five years. The next world congress will be held in Makuhari (30
minutes from the heart of Tokyo), Japan, on August 3-8, 2015. The official
languages of the congress are English, Russian, French, and German.
To further promote encounters with diverse scholarly perspectives on the
Slavic Eurasian region, the ICCEES decided to hold the next World Congress
for the first time outside Europe and North America, in Japan, Makuhari. The
Organizing Committee of this Congress is working hard to make Makuhari a
place "where many Wests meet many Easts." Makuhari is an ideal location for
international events. It takes only 30 minutes by bus from both Narita and
Haneda International Airports, and also just 30 minutes by train from
downtown Tokyo (Tokyo Railway Station).
