Panels are now forming for presentations regarding all aspects (historical, literary, cultural, etc.) of American Captivity Narratives. All topics and approaches to the genre are welcomed. Please send an abstract of your presentation to the address below. Graduate students/future teachers are particularly welcome to participate or register to attend the conference and captivity forum.

Those interested in the captivity narrative panel should contact Dr. Benjamin Allen, Captivity Narratives Chair, at bmallen@southtexascollege.edu as soon as possible with questions and/or to notify of your proposal.
