| Summary: |
The Tenth Jubilee Symposium will take place in Copenhagen on 13-18
May 2008, organised by the Danish National Research Foundation’s
Centre for Textile Research (CTR) in cooperation with the Department
of Conservation at the National Museum of Denmark and the Lejre
Experimental Centre.
The organising committee: Marie-Louise Nosch (director, CTR), Ulla
Mannering (research programme manager, CTR), Margarita Gleba (research
programme manager, CTR), Eva Andersson (research programme manager,
CTR), Maj Ringgaard (conservator, National Museum/CTR), Jesper Stub
Johnsen (director of Conservation Department, National Museum ),
Irene Skals (conservator, National Museum ), Marianne Rasmussen
(Head of Research, Lejre Experimental Centre).
In the past, participation in the NESAT was based on initial attendance
or invitation of the organisers. The participants presented a paper
or a poster and only few listeners (previous NESAT attendees) were
present. In the recent years, NESAT has grown and it is no longer
possible for everyone to present papers. Furthermore, interest in
textile archaeology has grown substantially and we feel that it
is important to open NESAT to a wider group of researchers. Therefore,
NESAT X will be based on open call and the papers to be presented
will be selected by a scientific committee, consisting of the members
of NESAT steering board and members of the organising committee.
