This could be expanded to religious or everyday practices. Within such a panel we could explore the possibilities and impossibilities of engaging with the subaltern perspectives through material culture. The theme of the Berkshire Conference is \u2018History on the Edge\u2019. In this panel we could engage with different \u2018edges\u2019, both critically, methodologically and spatially. Therefore it would be good to have panelists who work on or are from different locales.<\/p>\n<p>My own research focusses on Hindustani men and women in (the Dutch colony of) Suriname between 1873 and <!--more-->1940. In my paper I analyze Hindustani participation in the celebration of Queens Day and the celebration of Tadjah (also called Muharram or Hosay). The panel could fit in the \u2018Caribbean, Latin America, and Afro\/Francophone Worlds\u2019 subtheme or the \u2018Asia, Transnational Circuits, and Global Diasporas\u2019 subtheme.<\/p>\n<p>Would you be interested to participate as a panelist or chair? Please respond to m.fokken@rug.nl before the 24th of December. For co-panelists, a brief synopsis of your proposed paper topic would be greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the conference: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.berksconference.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.berksconference.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Margriet Fokken<br \/>\nPhD Student<br \/>\nUniversity of Groningen, The Netherlands<\/p>\n<p>Source: H-WOMEN@H-NET.MSU.EDU<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Berkshire Conference on Women&#8217;s History, Toronto, Canada, May 22-25, 2014, Website Call for panelists from Margriet Fokken: I would like to propose a panel for the Berkshire Conference on Women\u2019s History on material culture and festive practices of subaltern women.
