The 46rd Annual Conference of the ASPHS will take place on March 19-22, 2015 at The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. The ASPHS invites session proposals for panels and/or individual presentations on any aspect of Iberian history, art history, or literature. The typical panel will include three papers, a chairperson, and a discussant. We welcome proposals for roundtable discussions of a particular work or theme. Proposals should include a 200-word abstract for each paper and a one-page curriculum vitae for each participant, including chairs and discussants. Please include each participant's name and e-mail address, along with any requests for audio/visual equipment or other special requirements.
