Greetings all,
Jay Stottman and I have organized an electronic symposium for the SHA
2009 in Toronto. Entitled "Places of Meaning, Meaning in Place:
Tangibility, Controversy, and Conscience at Historic Sites," the
symposium will take place in two sessions held in the morning and
afternoon on Saturday January 10, 2009. The idea of an electronic
symposium is for the papers to be made available to those participating
in and attending prior to the session. This allows each presenter to
give a brief summary and then open the floor for questions and
discussion.
Almost all of the participants have their contributions now posted at
the following link:

In addition to these papers, John Jameson and Neil Silberman will also
be providing commentary on the papers and session as a whole as
discussants.
We hope that those of you interested in the topic will read the papers
and come join us for some great discussion at the session.
All my best,
Kevin.
