Dear Colleagues,
Please consider submitting an abstract to the following roundtable at the NeMLA's 56th convention in Boston (March 7-10) by September 30, 2023. Questions on the roundtable can be addressed to Arianna Fognani (afognani@sas.upenn.edu)
FORMAT: Roundtable. Participants give brief, informal presentations followed by an open conversation and debate.
In 1982 Robert Neville wrote, “The encounter of Christianity with the world’s other religions has shaken Christian theology to its foundations.” One recent response to this trauma is the so-called “theology without walls” movement, in which Neville has been an active participant. Unlike another response, namely comparative theology (which remains “confessional” or married to the truth of one’s starting or “home” religion), theology without walls is willing and eager to explore other religions—even non-religious sources—in what Jerry Martin calls “an effort to understand ultimate reality as fully as possible.”
The Mediterranean has often been considered a transitional space—a rite of passage, an interval between borders, a route to conquest. But what of the Mediterranean as a context and a framework in itself? How might notions of ‘man,’ ‘nation,’ ‘empire,’ ‘center,’ and ‘periphery’ be reformulated when looked at from the perspective of the sea? What does comparative literature look like when the Mediterranean is viewed not only as a sea in which cultures exist and literatures are produced but also as a context or a framework in which they can be reassessed?
The Woman Scream (Grito de Mujer) cause opens call for participation. Poets and Visual Artists from anywhere in the world, are invited to send a proposal to raise awareness about women violence as part of our social mission.
The work submitted might become part of our next international anthology in tribute to women and their rights to a life free from violence.
