Westminster English Colloquia Series
– Call for Papers –
Unpacking the Library: Literatures and their Archives.

The history of Western culture is punctuated by affirmations of the presence,
rebirth, or return of literature. Such affirmation involves, necessarily, if
implicitly or symbolically, a turn toward the archival forms of the text – that
is, traditionally speaking, a turn toward the codex and the library. This
recourse to textual holdings of various kinds clearly involves often
unacknowledged complexities of institutional, technical and cultural issues.

CFP: Eudora Welty and Photography (3/17/06; MLA '06)

This special MLA session will examine Eudora Welty's visual aesthetic. How has
Welty been imagined/authorized through photography and visual culture? What is
the connection between Welty's photography and her writing? Is her fiction
somehow cinematic? How might we problematize Welty's "provincialism" by
viewing her through the lens of mass, visual culture? This panel encourages
intertextual, interdisciplinary approaches.

Please send 1-2 page abstracts (500 words) by March 17th to Dina Smith (Dept. of
English, Drake University): dina.smith_at_drake.edu
