    Call for Papers: SPEAKING AS THE 'OTHER': CALLIOPE International Conference, University of Helsinki: 10-12 May 2021

    "SPEAKING AS THE ‘OTHER’: Coloniality, Subalternity, and Embodied Political Articulations"

    (late 18th – early 20th centuries)

    10-12 May 2021

    This multidisciplinary conference seeks to examine performative, embodied and acoustic histories of articulating political representation and colonial ‘otherness’. To that end, we intend to extend the focus of the conference beyond established Anglophone analyses of the metropole and colony, and indeed, beyond the disciplinary pre-eminence of Anglophone postcolonial studies.

    The conference is planned to be held live at Metsätalo Lecture Hall 4, Unioninkatu 40, University of Helsinki, and online.

    Uploaded by Susan Oliver on 17 February 2018 .

    THE MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION CONVENTION, CHICAGO, JANUARY 3-6, 2019

    SESSION SPONSORED BY THE NORTH AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE STUDY OF ROMANTICISM (NASSR)

    Proposals are invited for the following guaranteed session sponsored by NASSR at the 2019 MLA. NASSR is an MLA-affiliated organisation.

    TRANSATLANTIC ROMANTICISMS REVIEWED

    The session explores new ways of thinking about British and European Romantic writing with a transatlantic period context or significance, or that contributes to current debates with a transatlantic studies perspective. We are keen to receive proposals for papers that address any of the following: (a) innovative areas of investigation in Romantic poetry and prose, especially where there is an establishment or critique of American connections (b) new critical approaches (c) theoretical positions. The aim of the panel is to generate original discussion about transatlantic aspects of Romanticism as we approach the third decade of the 21st century.

    Please send abstracts (maximum of 350-words) and a short resumé explaining your interest in the session topic by 18th March 2018 to Susan Oliver at soliver@essex.ac.uk
