Participation in the Seminar consists of group discussion of pre-circulated papers, typically drafts of articles, book chapters, or dissertation chapters (with complete apparatus). Two of the papers are ordinarily by emerging scholars (including PhD students) and the other two are by established scholars. We allocate one hour per paper and presenters should anticipate substantial, and substantive, feedback. Calls for presenters are circulated via e-mail from the Center approximately two months prior to each meeting and papers are accepted on a first-come basis. We encourage prospective presenters to attend the seminar prior to proposing a paper for discussion. Funding may be available to reimburse some travel expenses for in-person participation by California-based faculty and graduate student (MA, PhD) attendees from outside of greater Los Angeles.
