Conference Proceedings

The proceedings of the First International Symposium on Crusades Studies (Crusades: Medieval Worlds in Conflict, Ashgate, 2010) was a well-received volume. However, the Second International Symposium on Crusade Studies did not generate enough proceedings contributions to make its production worthwhile. We are, however, willing to organize a proceeding volume for the Third International Symposium on Crusade Studies, should there be suf-ficient interest.

If you are interested in submitting your paper for consideration, please con-tact Matthew Parker at mparke26@slu.edu by May 31, 2014. Include your name, institution, paper title, and an abstract. Should a “critical mass” form, we will contact you to request a final draft of your paper in June.

Saint Louis on Crusade

About the Crusades Studies Forum

The Crusades Studies Forum was founded shortly after the First Internation-al Symposium on Crusade Studies held at Saint Louis University in February 2006. Since then it has hosted more than 40 scholars from around the world and convened more than one hundred times for lectures, seminars, and other events. The only one of its kind in North America, the Crusades Studies Forum is a venue for the presentation of current research, the discussion of recent scholarship, and the exploration of new directions in topics relating to the crusades. All are welcome to attend and participate in the forum. Current and post program information is available at http://crusades.slu.edu.
