The "British Literature and Culture: 20th and 21st Centuries" session welcomes papers that explore the rich cultural heritage of 20th and 21st Century British literature. It is important to note that this session uses the term “literature” liberally to include visual and performing arts, products of stage and screen that point to aspects of British culture generally, including the country’s politics. With regard to the conference’s theme “Translation in Action,” the session also welcomes but does not require proposals that discuss how the non-Anglophone world has reacted to/understood/re-interpreted 20th and 21st century British literature, or thoughts on teaching this literature in the American classroom.

We invite you to submit papers in English for the next 43rd issue of the journal “Świat i Słowo” (World and Word), which we dedicate to the use of corpus linguistics methods for the analysis of various linguistic phenomena occurring in discourse – broadly defined as “language in use” (Brown and Yule 1983). The aim of the volume is to present research that combines corpus linguistics and the analysis of different forms and varieties of discourse. Preference is given to articles presenting the results of original research of an empirical or analytical nature conducted using corpus linguistics tools and techniques to analyse the ways in which language is used in different contexts for communicative purposes.

The Margaret Cavendish Society will sponsor two or more sessions (panels or roundtables) at the Renaissance Society of America Annual Meeting in Boston, MA. The RSA conference in 2025 will be held jointly with the Shakespeare Assocation of America. 

The Milton Society of America invites proposals for 15-20-minute papers exploring Milton’s place in the global seventeenth century. This panel seeks to consider Milton’s participation in and reflections on cross-cultural encounters, including during his years in the Commonwealth government. Considerations of Milton’s engagements with empire, race, and non-Anglophone cultures are especially welcome. Send a paper title (15-word maximum), 200-word abstract, and resume (.pdf or .doc) to Marissa Greenberg at MiltonSocietySec@gmail.com no later than July 1.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR ESSAYS, REVIEWS, RESPONSES, POETRY, PROSE, AND VISUAL ART

Our engagement and consideration of conflicts, both national and international, has undoubtedly changed in the 21st century, especially in recent years. With the aid of media and modern technology, individuals and communities have a bigger space and opportunity to respond to geopolitical events which are both geographically far away and yet have never been closer.

The International Journal on Stereo & Immersive Media has extended the deadline for submission of papers to be considered for its 2024 issue, vol. 8. Full paper submissions are due June 16. 

As late Spring often allows for clearer and more focused work, the editors are once again inviting submissions in a broad spectrum of themes related to visual and sonic media studies.
