Generic Orwell: Between Fiction and Nonfiction
This panel explores the roles of transient creativities that shape the urban landscape of Latin American cities in the 20th and 21st centuries.
How do pamphlets, graffiti, advertising, embodied culture, performances, architecture and other diverse media work as systems of enunciability and (re)signification of the urban space? How do these processes of inscription create complex city layers?
Please send 300-500 word abstracts to Agnese Codebo (ac3244@columbia.edu)or Wendy Muñiz (wvm2102@ columbia.edu).

The 2013 SAMLA Conference will be held in Atlanta, Georgia on November 8-10, 2013. The Women's Studies Panel is entitled "Contemporary American Women Writers: Confronting Changing
Times."
Pamphleteers, clergymen, and political officials demonized recusant Catholics in Renaissance England, but early modern English culture is inextricable from the influences of the medieval Catholicism from which it emerged. This SAMLA session will look at the ways that Catholic culture, broadly interpreted, influences English literary and artistic endeavors between 1534 - 1660.
