The organizers of Researching New York 2013 invite proposals for
presentations on any aspect of New York State history -in any time
period and from any perspective. This annual conference brings together
historians, archivists, public historians, graduate students, teachers,
documentarians, and multimedia producers, to share their work on New
York State history. 

We especially encourage submissions that reflect on the long and
complicated history of religion in New York, including the intersections
of religion and church history with the secular, civic, and public life
of its citizens.

Religion, religious practice, and expressions of spirituality infuse
the history of New York State in myriad ways. Numerous events in
American religious history originated or unfolded in the churches,
schools, courts, and legislative bodies, as well as in the streets and
communities across New York. While welcoming submissions on all aspects
New York State history, we also seek proposals that examine any aspect
of religion and spirituality in the long history of New York.
