Turning Points
3rd CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR INTELLECTUAL HISTORY

Chicago, Illinois
September 21-24, 2000

As we contemplate the new millennium, we as intellectual historians are inevitably drawn to contemplate turning points in intellectual history.  This will be the theme of our conference.  We are looking for papers--about thirty minutes in length--that deal with specific instances of intellectual transition, real or imagined.  We also welcome papers on the ideas of novelty and transition, treated either historically or systematically.

Conference Program (as of 28 July 2000):
