Leeds Humanities Research Institute - Speculative Lunches The Leeds Humanities Research Institute is pleased to announce a series of interdisciplinary 'Speculative Lunches', and to invite proposals for topics and themes. Speculative lunches are intended to offer a forum for informal discussion, enabling Leeds colleagues to discuss interdisciplinary research ideas at an early stage of formulation, with a view to potentially establishing research collaborations around particular themes. The LHRI will host up to seven of these events in the academic year 2011-12. Each lunch will be coordinated by two members of academic staff, at least one of which will be based in the Faculty of Arts. However, participation will be open to members of staff, as well as postdoctoral fellows and postgraduate students, across all Faculties in the University of Leeds. Numbers at each meeting will be limited to 12, with spaces for up to four postgraduate students.
