32nd Annual American Studies Conference
American Studies Association of Turkey presents a conference on "Perceptions of Space and the American Experience"
Location: Ankara, Turkey
Period: November 7 - 9, 2007
This conference seeks to fill the scholarly vacuum that continues to exist with respect to space by removing it from the domain of the sacred, questioning its conceptualization, and exposing its manifestations within American Studies. We hope such a focus will advance the interaction between scholars who have conflicting historical and spatial epistemologies regarding the American experience.
