effort among specialists from across the American Southwest dedicated to promoting innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to the study of colonial Latin America Past participants have included renowned historians, art historians, literary scholars, and specialists in language and literature This year, we invite scholars interested in conceptualizing colonial archives, both in theory and practice We are particularly interested in works that take new approaches to the archive in terms of method and findings, as well as those that examine existing practices and shape understandings of the colonial period We welcome works that work to foster greater engagement with archives as historically constructed institutions and as repositories for material and intellectual engagement While we encourage submissions on this theme, proposals on other topics in colonial Latin America will be given full consideration In lieu of the traditional in-person seminar hosted in-person at a site in the American Southwest, this year’s virtual meetings will be hosted by the Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Arizona Seminar participants will share works in progress related to the study of colonial Latin America and meet virtually for group dialogue and discussion The Seminar’s annual meetings are conceived as welcoming and supportive venues to exchange ideas and to encourage
