- Please attach a cover sheet, with your name, institutional affiliation, and accurate contact information (mailing address and e-mail address) for the summer and fall of 2010.
- Abstracts should indicate the precise topic to be treated, the author’s contribution to the problem, the relationship of the work to previous scholarship on the topic, and the author’s specific conclusions and their relevance for the field of Indo-European Studies.
- Only one abstract may be submitted per person.
- We encourage preliminary abstracts to be sent via e-mail as an attached file to Prof. Craig Melchert and Randall Gordon.
