Scope of the Book

This panel aims to provoke discussion of “trauma” and the critical paradigm that has grown up around it in our time. Especially since the publication of Cathy Caruth’s Unclaimed Experience in 1996, “the traumatic” has grown from a specialist analytic discourse to a catch-all framework that informs how we talk about everything from politics, to art, to personal relationships. In short, the concept of trauma today enjoys a culturally dominant status. In recent years, however, the narrative trope of trauma has served as a target for critics increasingly frustrated with its seeming omnipresence.

Friday, January 31, 2025

The pandemic years have shown us that writing instruction needs to become more inclusive, more robust, and more compassionate. However, it has also challenged us to find new and innovative ways to maintain student engagement, foster participation, and address declining student attendance, among other concerns.
