Yet More about #Kzoo2019

๐”—o follow up on an earlier post, and per §5.1 of the Society Constitution, Society members are advised that the Annual General Meeting of the Tales after Tolkien Society will take place at the International Congress on Medieval Studies at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA, at 5:15pm local time in Fetzer 2030. Current agenda items are
  • Elections for Vice-president (USA) and Social Media Officer
  • Panel proposals for the 2020 International Congress on Medieval Studies
Currently, incumbent Luke Shelton is standing for re-election to the Vice-President position; he and Rachel Cooper, current Society Secretary, have been nominated to the Social Media Officer position. Additional nominations may be emailed to Society President Geoffrey B. Elliott here.
Currently, panels up for consideration for proposal to the 2020 International Congress on Medieval Studies are "More Afterlives of Medieval Religion" (offered to help develop more materials for the long-proposed third Society collected volume on the topic) and the perennial "Unconventional Medievalisms" (focusing on non-literary, non-film mis/appropriations of the medieval). Other proposals may be emailed to Society President Geoffrey B. Elliott here.
Additional nominations and proposals may be suggested during the meeting.
We hope to see you at the 'Zoo!
