Twentieth Century Literature Conference
Louisville, KY
2/23 – 2/25 2006

The International Vladimir Nabokov Society will be sponsoring two panels
at the conference this year:

1. Open panel: Vladimir Nabokov

Papers welcome on any aspect of Nabokov’s work. Preference will be given
to papers that do not discuss _Lolita_.

2. Religion, Spirits, and Spirituality in Nabokov’s Writings

This panel asks for papers that address the presence of religion, spirits,
and/or spirituality in Nabokov’s work.

Areas of interest might include, but are not limited to:

- the presence of spirits or ghosts in Nabokov’s fiction
- the idea of the soul
- spirituality and notions of goodness and evil
- representations of spirituality
- death and the afterlife
- the treatment of religion as an institution
- transcendence

All approaches are welcome. Proposals due September 1, 2005
