1. Proceedings of Dying and Death in 18th-21st Century Europe, International Conference, third edition, Alba Iulia, Romania, 3-5 of September 2010 must be indexed in CEEOL until 28th of February 2011. So, I'm hardly work on these. There will be about 45 papers in the conference proceedings. I will put very soon here the contents and the abstracts.

2. I think we will organize the fourth edition of Dying and Death in 18-21st century Europe, International Conference beetwen 29 September and October The First 2011. I hope at the end of next week I will send out the call for papers. There will be some good changes with this conference. We try to keep this conference for free, namely not requiring money for registration and accomodation for the possible participants. We cannot earlier organize this edition of the conference because it would be too close by DDD10.
