Interdisciplinary Nineteenth Century Studies Conference<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

March 24-27, 2022<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salt Lake City, Utah<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Held in a region of rich fossil beds, towering crags, plunging canyons, and snow-capped mountains, the 2022 INCS Annual Conference in Salt Lake City will dig deep into questions about stratification \u2013 physical and social, spatial and temporal, visual and textual. We invite papers that consider the myriad varieties of literal and figurative layering that played out across the nineteenth century. This conference will foreground how exploratory and creative acts of digging down and building up expose new truths and generate new knowledge both in the nineteenth century and in our present work as scholars of the period. Please join us in our transdisciplinary and interconnected investigations into what lies below, above, and on the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
