Pre-conference ECR workshop at ISSEME 2023 (27 June)
ISSEME is sponsoring a pre-conference workshop for eleven selected ECR participants on the topic of ‘Sharing Your Research: From Publication to Public Engagement’. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the people who are making this possible: the editorial team of the journal Anglo-Saxon England (Cambridge University Press), Meredith Carroll of (Manchester University Press), as well as Megan Cavell and Jennifer Neville (University of Birmingham; Royal Holloway; The Riddle Ages). We hope this experience will help the selected participants in their careers and we look forward to meeting them during the conference!
Publishers at ISSEME 2023 and an opportunity to participate in our ‘book launch event’
During the conference, there will be representatives and book stalls of a number of important publishers in our field: Boydell & Brewer, Brepols and Manchester University Press. We would also like to offer anyone an opportunity to participate in our plenary ‘book launch event’, where participants will be able to briefly pitch their book (series) (and/or offer any specific discounts) for all attendees of the conference. All we need is your name, the name of your book and a powerpoint slide. If you are interested, send an e-mail to Thijs Porck (m.h.porck@hum.leidenuniv.nl ).
We look forward to seeing many of you at our conference!
