THE
MILITARY ORDERS: CULTURE AND CONFLICT
The
Sixth International Conference to be held at St John’s
Gate, Clerkenwell, London ,
on
Thursday 5th September – Sunday 8th September 2013
The Conference will follow a similar
pattern to previous conferences with four plenary speakers. There will be
parallel sessions for communications, which may be on any aspect of the
Military Orders, but must not last
longer than 20 minutes. We expect to publish a substantial number of them.
.
The Conference is likely to attract an
audience of interested non-participants. For this reason, communications in
English are preferred, but they may be delivered in French, German, Italian or
Spanish, provided a short synopsis in English is submitted by 1st
August, 2013. Titles of communications and a brief outline should be sent on
the accompanying form (Form 1) by 31 January 2013.
The Conference will include several
social events and a visit, including lunch, to Cressing Temple
and Little Maplestead. Residential accommodation is in the modern Rosebery Hall
of residence (The London School of Economics) which has comfortable rooms, with
phone and hand-basin, and shared toilet and shower facilities; each floor has
also a fully fitted kitchen. There is a pleasant dining room (with full English
breakfast and two lunches), and a Common Room with bar. The hall is within an
easy 10 minutes walking distance of St John’s Gate. Single
rooms and some twin rooms are available.
Those who might wish local hotel accommodation
must make their own bookings – a list of hotels is available from the
Conference Administrator lcscmilitaryorders@gmail.com
