Call For Papers
- This event is open to regional, national, and international submissions. The conference will be “in-person” only.
- We invite proposals for papers on crypto-Judaism from any discipline (e.g., anthropology, history, sociology, philosophy, literature, music, etc.) and from any geographic location or time period.
- We also welcome proposals for presentations on all aspects of the Sephardic experience and that of other communities exhibiting crypto-Jewish phenomena.
The 2023 conference theme is “A Crypto-Judaic Exploration of the Borderlands.” Proposals breaking new ground in research on the Texas Borderlands and in general the far northern frontier of New Spain, including Texas, Chihuahua, New Mexico, and Southern Colorado are particularly welcome.
