Dear Friends and Members of the T'ang Studies Society, The T’ang Studies Society is happy to announce that it will once again offer sponsorship for one or more deserving panels that addresses topics related to the study of the Tang dynasty at the 2021 Annual Meeting of the Association for Asian Studies planned for Seattle, WA. The sponsorship includes small subventions for individual panelists, including travel and registration expenses. Panels may be presenting on site or virtually. Note that AAS has recently removed the panel sponsorship option from its panel proposal form. In line with that, the Society will entertain panel sponsorship applications AFTER panels have been accepted for inclusion in the AAS Annual Meeting program. Application Deadline: October 15, 2020. Recipients will be notified by November 15, 2020. Applicants for panel sponsorships are also eligible to apply for the society's grants. For full details, see the society's Announcements webpage: [ http://tangstudies.org/Announcements.html | http://tangstudies.org/Announcements.html ] All participants in the panel application must be T’ang Studies Society members in good standing at the time of submission. Information on membership can be found on the Society’s website: [ http://tangstudies.org/Membership.html | http://tangstudies.org/Membership.html ] Sincerely yours, Jonathan Skaff Secretary T'ang Studies Society http://tangstudies.org/Membership.html
