A call for contributions in the context of the “Psychiatry and the Arts in Nineteenth-Century Britain (PAN) Network” project may interest the readers of Hmadness.

“Papers are invited which explore any aspect of the relationship between psychiatry and the arts in nineteenth century Britain, with particular regard to its historical, social and cultural contexts. Papers are also invited which explore the meanings and interpretations of this history in modern contexts, whether from a creative or medical perspective. Submissions are welcome from academics, practitioner-researchers, archivists, artists, heritage and medical professionals, patients and service-users.

Abstracts of 200 words should be emailed to the PAN team by 8 January”.
