          It is widely known that ideologies of racism, nationalism, and xenophobia are dangerous and spread all over the world. We want to examine these terms as much as possible, from many perspectives and variable aspects: in politics, society, psychology, culture, and many more. We also want to devote considerable attention to how the phenomena of racism, nationalism and xenophobia are represented in artistic practices: in literature, film, theatre or visual arts.​

Overview - 

Écocritique Agricole: Tracing the Furrows of Farming in French and Francophone Literatures Tilling through the writings of Rousseau, Derrida reminds us in his Of Grammatology that writing and agriculture share a common origin. It is agriculture and the resulting sedentarization of our societies, he argues, that first opened nature to culture and to our writing upon it. Derrida goes so far as to compare writing to cultivation in the agricultural sense: “it is a matter of writing by furrows. The furrow is the line, as the ploughman traces it.” It makes sense, then, that the French “délirer,” meaning to babble, takes root in the Latin delirare, to veer from a furrow.

This panel seeks to investigate the intersection of postmodernism and horror cinema in the 21st century, highlighting shifts in themes, the rise of new filmmakers, innovative production techniques, and the ways in which the genre has absorbed and requalified postmodernist conventions. Comparative studies among American, European, and/or non-Western cinema are encouraged.

All papers submitted to this symposium must be related to results and research in or about English language; comparative, dissemination, multidisciplinary, etc. papers will also be accepted.

The proposed topics cover a variety of lines of work, including:

Call for Papers for in-person panel:

On the eve of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the formation of the United States of America, this panel seeks papers that examine US national identity as it is represented in textual form.  Specifically, we seek papers that analyze literary texts—novels, stories, poems, and plays—that speak to the characteristics of American identity and ultimately offer an answer to the question, “What does it mean to be ‘American’?”

We would like to remind you that there are only a few days left to submit proposals for the I Cine Bárbaras – International Conference on Cinema and Audiovisual, which will take place on October 23–24, 2025, at Universidade Lusófona – Centro Universitário do Porto.

CFP Performing Wilderness Volume

 <DEADLINE EXTENDED>

The wilderness appears to be a place devoid of theatre. As perhaps the most social of artistic forms, theatre and performance seem to sit in opposition to the solitude of wilderness, natural areas supposedly untouched by human activity. That is, wilderness and the performing arts are often thought as part of separate spheres, opposites even, situated firmly on either side of the imaginary divides between “nature” and “culture.” 

Located at the juncture of philosophy and the arts, mimesis is one of the most ancient concepts of literary theory and may not initially appear new, let alone original. It was indeed marginalized and forgotten in the Romantic and modernist periods haunted by the myth of originality. Yet, in recent years, scholars across the humanities, social sciences, and even the neurosciences, have returned to the ancient, yet strikingly contemporary, realization that humans are an imitative species, or homo mimeticus (www.homomimeticus.eu).
