FOURTEENTH INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF CELTIC STUDIES

SECTIONAL SESSIONS

Owing to the huge response to the paper call it was necessary to arrange twelve parallel sessions for the whole

week to accommodate all submissions. Rooms are numbered one-to-twelve below for convenience; actual room

numbers will be made known closer to the event. Sessions marked with an asterisk (*) were arranged by the

speakers themselves; all other sessions were arranged by the 14th ICCS committee. All requests for scheduling

papers/sessions on a particular day have been met, but speakers who made such requests should check that this

is the case, and that they are registered for the correct day. Included below are the papers of all who registered

on or before March 31st. All those who submitted paper proposals but did not register by that date were deemed

to have withdrawn and accordingly have been removed from the schedule.
