Panels are now forming for presentations regarding all aspects (historical, literary, cultural, etc.) of Captivity Narratives. All topics and approaches to the genre are welcomed. Graduate students/future teachers are particularly welcome to participate or register to attend the conference and the captivity forum. The conference offers monetary awards for the best graduate student papers; please check the website for more information.

If your work does not focus on captivity narratives in particular but fits within the broad range of areas designated for the upcoming conference on American & Popular culture, I still encourage you to participate. Please pass along this call to friends and colleagues.
