[1] Association Announcements <Back> From: F Pownall, University of Alberta <Frances.Pownall@ualberta.ca> As we all settle down to mark the March batch of essays, I would like to remind everyone to keep the CAC Undergraduate Essay Competition in mind. Essays for any course we teach from junior surveys to senior seminars are welcome. I would prefer clean copies, as it saves me time with the whiteout. Also, students may correct small errors such as typos or bibliographical format, but the essay should essentially be the same one that was submitted in the course. The deadline is August 31, 2000, to allow essays from summer courses to be included.
Please send essays to:

pone alla ricerca specialistica per la sua struttura e i suoi contenuti e affronteranno momenti
particolari della sua stessa fortuna storiografica. Il Convegno ospiterà anche una Sezione
